Linda Holtman et al.
Epilepsia, 54(4), 589-595 (2013-02-13)
Brain inflammation occurs during epileptogenesis and may contribute to the development and progression of temporal lobe epilepsy. Recently, several studies have indicated that seizures may also increase specific blood plasma cytokine levels in animal models as well as in human
Maxime Lévesque et al.
Seizure, 25, 18-25 (2015-02-04)
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most prevalent type of partial epileptic disorders. In this study, we have analyzed the impact of levetiracetam (LEV) in the pilocarpine model of MTLE. Sprague-Dawley rats (n=19) were injected with pilocarpine (380 mg/kg

Journal of cerebral blood flow and metabolism : official journal of the International Society of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, 33(7), 1090-1097 (2013-04-25)
Although certain metabolic characteristics such as interictal glucose hypometabolism are well established for temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), its pathogenesis still remains unclear. Here, we performed a comprehensive study of brain metabolism in a mouse model of TLE, induced by pilocarpine-status
Manuela Mazzuferi et al.
Annals of neurology, 74(4), 560-568 (2013-05-21)
Epigenetic mechanisms involved in transcriptional regulation of multiple molecular pathways are potentially attractive therapeutic interventions for epilepsy, because single target therapies are unlikely to provide both anticonvulsant and disease-modifying effects. A selection of epilepsy-related gene expression data sets were retrieved
Kathleen Heng et al.
Epilepsia, 54(9), 1535-1541 (2013-07-16)
The role of granule cell axon (mossy fiber) sprouting in temporal lobe epileptogenesis is unclear and controversial. Rapamycin suppresses mossy fiber sprouting, but its reported effects on seizure frequency are mixed. The present study used high-dose rapamycin to more completely
