Epilepsy and Seizures Related Research Tools
The epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder in which clusters of nerve cells in the brain signal abnormally and cause seizures. The syndromes include uncontrolled shaking movements (e.g. tonic-clonic seizure involving much of the body with loss of consciousness), shaking movements (e.g. focal seizure involving only part of the body with variable levels of consciousness) and subtle momentary loss of awareness (e.g. absence seizure).
Seizures can be conceptualized as a result of the imbalance between excitation (E) and inhibition (I) in the brain. The factors that alter E/I balance can be genetic or acquired. These factors vary from genes and subcellular signaling cascades to widespread neuronal circuits, such as abnormal synaptic connectivity in cortical dysplasia, abnormal GABA receptor subunits in Angelman syndrome, potassium channel mutations in Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (BFNE) and structural alteration of hippocampal circuitry following prolonged febrile seizures.
