Alterations in DNA 5-hydroxymethylation patterns in the hippocampus of an experimental model of chronic epilepsy
13 Aug 2024
Abstract excerpt
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a type of focal epilepsy characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures originating from the hippocampus. The epigenetic reprogramming hypothesis of epileptogenesis suggests that the development of TLE is associated with alterations in gene transcription changes resulting in a hyperexcitable network in TLE. DNA 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) is an epigenetic mechanism that has been...
