Traumatic Brain Injury induces persistent behavioural deficits that are rescued by the antiepileptic drug Levetiracetam

Shayleen Ghassemi, Xavier Penetrante, Tanja C. Zerulla…·W. Ted Allison

This study investigates the long-term behavioral effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in larval zebrafish and evaluates the efficacy of levetiracetam (LEV) in mitigating these deficits.

Tlr4 and Nlrp3 Inflammasome Signaling Drive a Delayed Secondary Wave of Hyperexcitability After TBI in Larval Zebrafish: Implications for Post-Traumatic Epileptogenesis

Leith M.T. Alkhatib, Tanja C. Zerulla, Kayla M. Finlay, W. Ted Allison

This study identifies a delayed secondary inflammatory wave driven by Tlr4 and Nlrp3 inflammasome signaling that contributes to post-traumatic epileptogenesis in larval zebrafish, suggesting a therapeutic window for anti-inflammatory interventions.
