In a new study published in Nature, researchers have uncovered a promising new avenue for epilepsy treatment using propofol, a widely used general anesthetic. This discovery sheds light on the intricate relationship between ion channels, specifically hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels, and epilepsy. The findings not only expand our understanding...
According to a recent genome-wide meta-analysis study published in Nature Genetics, researchers have identified 164 genetic risk loci associated with restless legs syndrome (RLS), providing new insights into the disease's biology and potential treatment targets such as glutamate receptors 1 and 4. Expanded Genetic Understanding The recent genome-wide...
A recent study led by researchers from the University of Cambridge and the Helmholtz Munich Institute of Neurogenomics has uncovered over 140 new genetic risk loci associated with restless leg syndrome (RLS), significantly advancing our understanding of this common yet poorly understood condition. Published in Nature Genetics, the findings could...
