[The neurochemical mechanisms of temporal lobe epilepsy: an update].
BACKGROUND Last decade witnessed a remarkable progress in understanding the molecular background of temporal lobe epilepsy. That success was due not only to undisputable achievements in the development of electrochemical and biological techniques, but also to the well-defined neuropathological features of partial epilepsy and the availability of appropriate animal models. THE AIM The aim of t...
متن کاملNeurochemical mechanisms underlying alcohol withdrawal.
More than 50 years ago, C.K. Himmelsbach first suggested that physiological mechanisms responsible for maintaining a stable state of equilibrium (i.e., homeostasis) in the patient's body and brain are responsible for drug tolerance and the drug withdrawal syndrome. In the latter case, he suggested that the absence of the drug leaves these same homeostatic mechanisms exposed, leading to the with...
متن کاملPossible Benign Partial Epilepsy.
1. Seizure semiology of these patients was not included in the study. Semiology may be helpful to further classify these patients as benign partial epilepsy in infancy with complex partial seizures versus benign partial epilepsy in infancy with secondary generalized seizures (SGS). Though, proposal was made to combine these syndromes in the past, some subtle differences exist such as predominan...
متن کاملNeurochemical mechanisms underlying responses to psychostimulants.
It is proposed to undertake a study to determine if differences in dopa-minergic reactivity among individuals could explain the variability in response to psychostimulants and to assess the relation of this reactivity to mental state and personality characteristics. Investigation of these relations may provide clues to the association between brain biochemistry and predisposition for drug abuse...

N Engl J Med 2003;349:1257-66. Copyright © 2003 Massachusetts Medical Society. pilepsy is one of the most common neurologic problems worldwide. Approximately 2 million persons in the United States have epilepsy, and 3 percent of persons in the general population will have epilepsy at some point in their lives. 1 In recent years, important advances have been made in the diagnosis and treatment o...
