Inhibition of p38 MAPK Signaling Regulates the Expression of EAAT2 in the Brains of Epileptic Rats

Seizures induce the release of excitatory amino acids (EAAs) from the intracellular fluid to the extracellular fluid, and the released EAAs primarily comprise glutamic acid (Glu) and asparaginic acid (Asp). Glu neurotransmission functions via EAA transporters (EAATs) to maintain low concentrations o...
