Clock gene dysregulation in epilepsy: A systematic review
Abstract Objective Epileptic seizures show a rhythmic pattern, being more frequent at particular times of the day (e.g., only occurring during sleep), suggesting a role of the circadian rhythm. Clock genes regulate the circadian rhythm and might be involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy.

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

Background and Purpose Adenosine is a potent regulator of neurotransmission and neuronal excitability, through activation of Gi coupled adenosine A1 receptors (A1Rs). Adenosine has gained interest as an anticonvulsant because of its endogenous involvement in ending seizure activity, but peripheral side effects require local application.

Abstract Objective Neuropeptides have garnered great interest as potential treatments for epilepsy due to their impact on neuronal excitability through modulation of ion channels and neurotransmitter receptor activity. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36‐amino acid neuropeptide that is expressed primarily by γ‐aminobutyric acidergic (GABAergic) interneurons ...

Spreading depolarization and its influence on epileptiform activity
Abstract Spreading depolarization (SD) is a transient disruption of electrographic activity that slowly propagates through the gray matter by chemical contiguity, and it is characterized by a large depolarization of neurons and glial cells. SD, which is associated with massive changes in ion homeostasis, including extreme increases in [K+]o, was shown ...

Abstract Objective Despite decades of development in anti‐seizure medications, ~30% of individuals remain refractory to all treatments, and none of the existing therapies are disease modifying. Identifying targets outside the current preclinical paradigm is critically important.

Immunomorphologic assessment of changes in functional astroglial proteins in a kainate-induced hippocampal sclerosis model [PDF]
Introduction. Astrocytes are involved in mediator metabolism, neuroplasticity, energy support of neurons and neuroinflammation, and this determines their pathogenetic role in epilepsy. Aim. This study aimed at evaluating region-specific changes in the
