ABSTRACT Objective Accurate localization of epileptogenic tubers (ETs) in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is essential but challenging, as these tubers lack distinct pathological or genetic markers to differentiate them from other cortical tubers.

Hippocampal Chandelier Cells Modulate Seizure Susceptibility and Severity
The axon initial segment (AIS), crucial for action potential initiation, serves as a prime locus for controlling network activity. Chandelier Cells (ChCs), evolved in the mammals, intricately target AISs, acting as gatekeepers for neuronal firing. Diminishing ChC input makes animals more prone to developing seizures, whereas fortifying this connection ...

Hippocampal sclerosis – cause or consequence of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy in children? [PDF]
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis is a well defined epileptic syndromic entity, especially in adults. In pediatric population, this syndrome has been less well studied, probable because of the particular electroclinical features of

Epilepsy, hippocampal sclerosis and febrile seizures linked by common genetic variation around SCN1A [PDF]
Epilepsy comprises several syndromes, amongst the most common being mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis. Seizures in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis are typically drug-resistant, and mesial temporal lobe ...

Structural imaging biomarkers of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy. [PDF]
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy is a major cause of premature death in people with epilepsy. We aimed to assess whether structural changes potentially attributable to sudden death pathogenesis were present on magnetic resonance imaging in people who ...

Update on Temporal Lobe Epilepsy [PDF]
Although the most common and best studied of focal epilepsies, a substantial proportion of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) continue to have seizures despite medical therapy. Of these, surgery cannot be offered for most with bitemporal TLE while its effectiveness is limited in these and others because of memory and/or language concerns [1 ...

Circular RNA PTPN4 Contributes to Blood‐Brain Barrier Disruption during Early Epileptogenesis
Epileptic condition induces CircPTPN4 upregulation, which promotes ECE‐1 expression through competitive sequestration of miR‐145a‐5p. The elevated ECE‐1 catalyzes the ET‐1 production, leading to p38/MAPK pathway activation and subsequent downregulation of tight junction protein expression. This cascade results in increased BBB permeability and enhanced
