Inhibition in Epileptic Networks

THE ROLE OF INHIBITION IN EPILEPTIC NETWORKS Seizures arise when there is a disruption of brain mechanisms that normally create a balance between neuronal inhibition and excitation. Such imbalance may occur in a localized region of the brain, in multiple brain areas, or simultaneously throughout the whole brain. Navarrete-Modesto Victor, PhD.
