Double trouble? Potential for hyperexcitability following both channelopathic up- and downregulation of I<sub>h</sub> in epilepsy
Studies of pathological ion channel regulation as an underlying mechanism of epilepsy have revealed alterations of the h-current in several animal models. While prior reports indicate that downregulation of the h-current is pro-excitatory on the single neuron level, we recently found an upregulation...
