The present invention is directed to novel treatment of controlling hippocampal neural circuit hyperexcitability occurring in a neurological disease or disorder associated with epileptogenesis in a subject in need of such treatment, comprising the step of contacting the hippocampus in said subject with a compound effective to restore excitatory/inhibitor balance thereby controlling the neural circuit hyperexcitability. Further provided is a method of treating a neurological disease or disorder associated with epileptogenesis in a subject in need of such treatment, comprising the step of administering an amount of an adenosine A1 receptor agonist pharmacologically effective to block epileptogenetic activities without blocking excitatory synaptic transmission.
