P 55: Sleep Disturbance and Epilepsy: an Inflammatory Pathway

Sleep plays a vital role in regulating physiological mechanisms in the human body. Nowadays, by the change of lifestyle and as a consequence of longer work hours and increased accessibility to media, sleep disturbance becomes a common problem in modern society. Many studies demonstrated that sleep disturbance triggers a systemic low-grade inflammation by increasing the level of several cytokine...

Epilepsy and dopaminergic system

Epilepsy is accompanied with a strong change in neuronal activity not only in excitatory (glutamatergic) and inhibitory (GABAergic) neurotransmission, but also in neuromodulatory agents. Dopaminergic system, as an important neuromodulatory system of the brain, has significant effect on neuronal excitability. In addition, this system undergoes many changes in epileptic brain. Understanding the e...

Neuroprotective Effect of Celastrus Paniculatus Seed Extract in Epilepsy and Epilepsy-Associated Cognitive Deficits

Purpose: Cognitive deficit is one of the common comorbidity accompanying epilepsy. The present study evaluated the effect of Celastrus paniculatus (C- paniculatus) seed extract on seizure severity and cognitive deficit following Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) -induced chemical kindling model. Methods: PTZ kindling model was developed by daily administration of sub-convulsive dose of PTZ 30 mg/kg for...
