Exploring the Role of MMP9 and its Association with TGFβ Signalling in Patients with Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy-Hippocampal Sclerosis
2023-07-25
Abstract excerpt
Inflammation and blood brain barrier (BBB) damage are associated with epileptogenesis in Mesial Temporal lobe epilepsy with Hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE-HS). Animal studies have predicted the role of Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) in extracellular matrix (ECM) modulation, BBB leakage and neuro-inflammation, while Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) signalling in astrocytes potentiates hyper-excitability leadi...
