α2δ-2 mediates coupling of presynaptic calcium entry to vesicle release in hippocampal parvalbumin-expressing interneurons

This study shows that α2δ-2 is essential for synaptic inhibition in hippocampal parvalbumin-expressing interneurons, with its absence leading to increased excitation and seizure-like activity.

Altered hippocampal activation in seizure-prone CACNA2D2 knockout mice

This study examines hippocampal activation and histopathological changes in CACNA2D2 knockout mice, finding altered functional activity without significant structural changes associated with seizure susceptibility.
