“…The time-dependent role of peripheral EP2 receptor signaling after status epilepticus is another important factor in understanding the contributions of peripheral inflammation to its detrimental effect on overall health. In fact, early neuroinflammation after status epilepticus may be neuroprotective, 9 and Dingledine and colleagues have previously shown that there are distinct therapeutic windows for Cox-2 inhibition following status epilepticus. 10 As a next step, inducible myeloid cellspecific EP2 receptor knockout mice could be used to identify the most beneficial time window to block peripheral EP2 signaling for improvement of recovery after status epilepticus.…”
