Gender differences in a Drosophila transcriptomic model of chronic pentylenetetrazole induced behavioral deficit
A male Drosophila model of locomotor deficit induced by chronic pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), a proconvulsant used to model epileptogenesis in rodents, has recently been described. Antiepileptic drugs …

A Drosophila systems model of withdrawal from chronic pentylenetetrazole relevant in post-epileptogenesis
Rodent kindling induced by pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) is an established model of epileptogenesis and antiepileptic drug (AED) testing. Recently, a Drosophila systems model has been described in which…

Transcriptomic analysis implicates ribosomal and energy metabolic pathways in antiepileptic drug action in a Drosophila model
Mechanisms of long term action of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), used in treating epilepsy and many other neurological and psychiatric disorders, are poorly understood. Recently, a novel Drosophila tr…
