Epileptiform activity preferentially arises outside tumor invasion zone in glioma xenotransplants

Seizures occur commonly with brain tumors. The underlying mechanisms are not understood. We analyzed network and cellular excitability changes in tumor-invaded and sham neocortical tissue in vitro using a rat glioblastoma model. Rat C6 glioma cells were transplanted into rat neocortex, yielding diff...
