Search for anticonvulsant and antiepileptogenic neuropeptides as strategy for the development of innovative future antiepileptic drugs Ghent University
Abstract: Neuropeptides and their receptors are promising targets for future treatment strategies for epilepsy. Our research already have experience with the pharmacological characterization of the anticonvulsant mechanisms of peptides such as somatostatin, cortistatin statin and neuropeptide Y. This is a strategy that we want to go further, as many pertinent questions in this area remain unanswered. However, in the current project, we want ...
