Carbamazepine protects against megencephaly and abnormal expression of BDNF and Nogo signaling components in the mceph/mceph mouse
Carbamazepine (CBZ) is a commonly used antiepileptic drug known to block voltage-gated sodium channels. Infants exposed to CBZ in utero show reduced head circumference, for reasons unknown. We investigated CBZ's effect on neural growth in megencephaly (mceph/mceph) mice lacking functional Kv1.1...
