Abstract
Objective: This study was to investigate the cytokine expression profiles in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of Self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (SeLECTS) patients with electrical status epilepticus during sleep (ESES) and compare these to other neurological diseases to identify the cytokines that correlate with ESES.
Methods: Seven SeLECTS patients with ESES and nine non-ESES controls were included in this study. CSF was centrifuged within one hour and stored at -80 °C; subsequently, High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), Caspase-1, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-1α, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
Results: CSF levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-1α, and Caspase-1 in ESES group were significantly elevated compared with those non-ESES controls. Moreover, IL-1β CSF levels were positively correlated with Caspase-1 and TNF-α whereas it moderately correlated with IL-1α.
Conclusions: The present study indicates a close relationship between neuroinflammation and ESES pathogenesis in patients with SeLECTS.
期刊介绍:
Neurological Sciences is intended to provide a medium for the communication of results and ideas in the field of neuroscience. The journal welcomes contributions in both the basic and clinical aspects of the neurosciences. The official language of the journal is English. Reports are published in the form of original articles, short communications, editorials, reviews and letters to the editor. Original articles present the results of experimental or clinical studies in the neurosciences, while short communications are succinct reports permitting the rapid publication of novel results. Original contributions may be submitted for the special sections History of Neurology, Health Care and Neurological Digressions - a forum for cultural topics related to the neurosciences. The journal also publishes correspondence book reviews, meeting reports and announcements.
