Modelling Temporal Lobe Epilepsy with Sclerosis in the SSP-Saporin ‘Trojan Horse’ Model

Gupta S (2026) Modelling Temporal Lobe Epilepsy with Sclerosis in the SSP-Saporin ‘Trojan Horse’ Model. Univ Calgary Thesis. Objective: To confirm that the SSP-SAP model reproduces the defining features of human TLE and that a primary and selective GABAergic defect is sufficient to trigger epileptogenesis that results in TLE-HS+. Summary: The author hypothesized that intrahippocampal
