Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE27015: Rat model of MTLE: Animals with epilepsy vs animals without epilepsy (Agilent) GSE27166: Rat model of MTLE: Animals with epilepsy vs animals without epilepsy (codelink) Refer to individual Series
Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to participate in the pathogenesis of several neurological diseases including epilepsy. To date, the expression and functions of miRNAs in chronic temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), the most common type of refractory epilepsy in adults, have not been well characterized. Here, we adopted high-throughput sequencing to investigate miRNA expression profile in a chronic TLE model induced by amygdala stimulation
Project description:Analysis of biopsy hippocampal tissue of patients with pharmacoresistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) undergoing neurosurgical removal of the epileptogenic focus for seizure control. Chronic TLE goes along with focal hyperexcitability. Results provide insight into molecular mechanisms that may play a role in seizure propensity 150 human hippocampus samples
