These results suggest that pharmacological inhibition of the TRPC3 channels by our novel compound JW-65 might represent a new antiseizure strategy engaging a previously undrugged mechanism of action. Hence, this proof-of-concept study establishes TRPC3 as a novel feasible therapeutic target for the treatment of some forms of epilepsy.
