Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is one of the most common forms of epilepsies in adults. The calcium homeostasis modulator 1 gene (CALHM1) has been considered one of the candidate genes that play a role in epileptogenesis due to its function in calcium homeostasis and amyloid β (Aβ) regulation. Recently, the association of a single nucleotide polymorphism (rs11191692) of CALHM1 has been reported to...
