  1. 1. Metabolic Crisis Induced by Antiepileptic Drugs in Patients with Mitochondrial Epilepsy : The Effect of Valproic Acid, Topiramate and Propofol on Mitochondrial Function

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Angelica Dahlgren; [2023]
    Keywords : ATP; epilepsy; mitochondria; oxygen consumption; propofol; topiramate; valproic acid;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are important cytosolic organelles present in nearly all eukaryotic cells. The main function of mitochondria are to generate the vast majority of ATP through the process of oxidative phosphorylation. READ MORE
