Abstract excerpt

In search of a gene polymorphism that may contribute to the development of partial epilepsy, we focused on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), since the functional effects of insult-induced neurotrophin changes are reported to be protection against neuronal damage and stimulation of synaptic reorganization. Two hundred nineteen patients with partial epilepsy were selected for study and 311 individuals were...
