Research Article: Decreased neuronal excitability in hypertriglyceridemia hamsters with acute seizures
Abstract:
Introduction: Neonatal seizures are the most common clinical manifestation of neurological dysfunction in newborns, with an incidence ranging from 1 to 5‰. However, the therapeutic efficacy of current pharmacological treatments remains suboptimal. This study aims to utilize genetically modified hamsters with hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG) to investigate the effects of elevated triglycerides on neuronal excitability and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. The ultimate goal is to identify novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of neonatal seizures.
