There are limited therapeutic options for patients with Dravet syndrome (DS). The equilibrative nucleoside transporters 1 (ENT1) mediate both the influx and efflux of adenosine across the cell membrane exerted beneficial effects in the treatment of epilepsy. This study aimed to evaluate the anticonvulsant effect of the ENT1 inhibitor in an animal model of DS (Scn1a mice). J7 (5 mg/kg) treatment was efficacious in elevating seizure threshold in Scn1a mice after hyperthermia exposure. Moreover, the J7 treatment significantly reduced the frequency of spontaneous excitatory post-synaptic currents (sEPSCs, ~35% reduction) without affecting the amplitude in dentate gyrus (DG) granule cells. Pretreatment with the adenosine A1 receptor (A1R) antagonist, DPCPX, abolished the J7 effects on sEPSCs. These observations suggest that the J7 shows an anticonvulsant effect in hyperthermia-induced seizures in Scn1a mice. This effect possibly acts on presynaptic A1R-mediated signaling modulation in granule cells.
