Immune Mechanism of Epileptogenesis and Related Therapeutic Strategies

Abstract: Immunologic and neuroinflammatory pathways have been found to play a major role in the pathogenesis of many neurological disorders such as epilepsy, proposing the use of novel therapeutic strategies. In the era of personalized medicine and in the face of the exhaustion of anti-seizure therapeutic resources, it is worth looking at the current or future possibilities that neuroimmunomodulator or anti-inflammatory therapy can offer us in the management of patients with epilepsy. For this reason, we performed a na… Show more

“…A plethora of recent reviews has linked inflammation and epilepsy. 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 31 , 32 Although elevated body temperature is probably the best‐known indicator of inflammation that provides predictive information about increased risk of a seizure, we do not know of any study that has assessed how well serum/plasma levels of inflammation‐related proteins convey information about impending seizures.…”

“… 9 , 10 HMGB1 belongs to the damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and promotes the upregulation of downstream inflammatory factors in epilepsy, including nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB), interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), and tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α). 11 In addition, glucocorticoid therapy has achieved the prevention and treatment of epilepsy and epileptic encephalopathy by directly inhibiting the expression and release of IL‐1β and TNF‐α, 12 , 13 but has serious side effects (such as hypertension and osteoporosis). 14 Intriguingly, a recent study suggests that inadequate pro‐resolving progress sustains neuroinflammation during epileptogenesis.…”
