Novel etiology underlying certain types of seizures and migraines is presented, whereby changes in endocrine levels result in changes in osteoclast activity levels which in turn result in elevated extracellular Ca2+ levels which in turn result in systemic alterations in nerves muscles, including increased nerve membrane depolarization, enhanced calcium channel mediated neurotransmitter release, and increased muscle contractility via sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release channel mediated tropomyosin block removal, which in turn result in increased seizure risk in people with low seizure thresholds. Treatment methods are provided that modulate the bone microenvironment to provide an etiology based seizure treatment method that simultaneously reduces nerve sensitivity and muscle contractility. Preferred embodiments include use of SERMs such as raloxifene, testosterone, estrogen, calcimimetics such as cinacalcet, RANKL inhibitors such as denosumab, and bisphosphonate such as risedronate.

Bone microenvironment modulated seizure treatments

This invention describes a topical delivery mechanism that contains a mixture of cetylated fatty esters that act as transdermal carriers of desired therapeutic molecules. The proposed cetyl fatty ester penetrant-complex (Base CFEP-complex) contains specific cetyl fatty esters, polar solvents, a carrier base (gel, cream, lotion, patch or stick gel), antioxidants and the desired pharmaceutical, cosmetic or antigenic response eliciting molecules that are efficaciously delivered by selectively varying component ratios in the complex. The invention proposes the use of transdermal delivery of medications such as those used in treatment of urinary incontinence, testosterone deficiency, arthritic and joint pain and other pains such as pain in the neck, lower back, back, knees, headaches, and other types of inflammatory pains, peripheral neuropathic pain, pain associated with repetitive strain injuries such as myofacial pain, rapid treatment of epileptic seizures, soluble antigens in the immuno-therapeutic treatment of allergies, actives in the treatment of foot cracks and elbow cracks, actives in the treatment of facial and other wrinkles in the form of anti-aging creams and gels and other topically delivered therapies.
