Brain Glutathione Increase and Seizure Burden Decrease in Patients with Intractable Epilepsy on Ketogenic Diet

2022-05-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background and Purpose</bold>: Ketogenic diet (KD) improves seizure control in patients with drug-resistant forms of epilepsy; however, the mechanism of action remains poorly understood. Increased mitochondrial levels of glutathione (GSH) might contribute to a change in seizure susceptibility suggestive of possible anticonvulsant role for GSH. Our goals were to quantify changes of...
