Acute treatment with minocycline, but not valproic acid, improves long‐term behavioral outcomes in the Theiler's virus model of temporal lobe epilepsy

This work further supports the role of an inflammatory response in the development of chronic behavioral comorbidities and further highlights the utility of this platform for the development of mechanistically novel pharmacotherapies for epilepsy.
