Neuronal hyperexcitability in dystrophin-deficient mdx hippocampal neurons: the importance of interleukin-6 and GABAergic regulation

Neuronal hyperexcitability in dystrophin-deficient mdx hippocampal neurons: the importance of interleukin-6 and GABAergic regulation

Abstract Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a severe neuromuscular disorder arising from loss of the structural protein, dystrophin. It also often presents with cognitive deficits and susceptibility to epilepsy. Expressed in neurons of the hippocampus, dystrophin plays an important role in synapse...
