“…Such agents include endogenous compounds like GABA ( Manville et al, 2018b ), the ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate ( Manville et al, 2020 ), and arachidonic acid metabolites and derivatives ( Schweitzer et al, 1990 ; Schweitzer et al, 1993 ; Larsson et al, 2020a ; Larsson et al, 2020b ), as well as a variety of natural products including cilantro ( Manville and Abbott, 2019 ). Further development of Kv7.2/7.3 enhancers for treating epilepsy and other neuronal disorders seems promising ( Maljevic and Lerche, 2014 ; Vigil et al, 2020 ), especially because retigabine has been withdrawn from clinical use because of a number of off-target side effects ( Brickel et al, 2020 ). Compared to other compounds recently found to enhance Kv7.2/7.3 channels, CBD has the distinction of having already been successfully used in multiple epilepsy clinical trials.…”
