Modeling Glial Contributions to Seizures and Epileptogenesis: Cation-Chloride Cotransporters in Drosophila melanogaster

Flies carrying a kcc loss-of-function mutation are more seizure-susceptible than wild-type flies. The kcc gene is the highly conserved Drosophila melanogaster ortholog of K(+)/Cl(−) cotransporter genes thought to be expressed in all animal cell types. Here, we examined the spatial and temporal requi...
