Article Synopsis
- Epileptic absence seizures can be controlled by stimulating cerebellar nuclei (CN) neurons that communicate with the thalamus, but the mechanism of how this affects thalamo-cortical oscillations is unclear.
- The study tested whether single-pulse optogenetic stimulation of CN neurons could disrupt synchronized thalamo-cortical activity during seizures in a mouse model of absence epilepsy.
- Results showed that this stimulation effectively desynchronized thalamic firing during seizures, which may clarify how cerebellar stimulation can terminate seizure activity and influence thalamic pathways.
