Eliminating senescent brain cells in animal models showed seizure reduction and cognitive improvement potential.
Temporal lobe epilepsy, which results in recurring seizures and cognitive dysfunction, is associated with premature aging of brain cells.
A new study suggests temporal lobe epilepsy may be linked to early aging of certain brain cells. When researchers removed these aging cells in mice, seizures dropped, memory improved, and some animals ...
Scientists from Georgetown University Medical Center have warned that exposure to air pollution can have serious consequences for children's developing brains. However, a new study has shown that ...
In a retrospective cohort, a clinical heuristic composed of eight binary variables helped identify which patients with medial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) were best suited for stereotactic laser ...
Clearing out “aged” brain cells dramatically reduced seizures and restored memory in a new epilepsy study.
Epileptic activity originating from one or more diseased brain regions in the temporal lobe is difficult to contain. Many patients with so-called temporal lobe epilepsy often do not respond to ...
Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Retrospective chart review included 29 patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who underwent LITT. Better 1-year ...
Scientists have developed a new therapeutic concept for the treatment of temporal lobe epilepsy. It represents a gene therapy capable of suppressing seizures at their site of origin on demand. Having ...
It was 2006, a softball game in Mobile, Alabama, was in full swing, and 10-year-old Cathryn Cazalas was experiencing her first seizure. Little did she know, she would end up at Children’s of Alabama ...
