Abstract

PURPOSE

There is now extensive evidence to support the involvement of inflammation in the course of epileptic seizures. Seizure-induced changes in serum IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-1Ra levels are reported in several studies. Serum cytokine levels may also be disturbed in inter-ictal period due to seizure activity.

METHODS

Twenty-one patients (12 women; mean age 35±12.3) with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), 17 patients (8 women; mean age 31.8±10.4) with extra-temporal lobe epilepsy (XLE) and 20 normal controls (10 women; mean age 35.6±8.8) were included in the study. Serum levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-1Ra of the TLE, XLE groups in inter-ictal period and of the normal control group were compared.

RESULTS

All three cytokine levels are found to be significantly elevated in epilepsy patients when compared to controls (p<0.05). In TLE group, IL-1β serum levels were significantly higher than in the XLE group (p<0001).

CONCLUSION

The major findings in our study were increased levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-1Ra in epileptic patients and high levels of IL-1β in TLE group. Our results support the existence of a chronic inflammatory state in epileptic patients.

摘要

目的

目前有大量证据支持炎症参与癫痫发作过程。多项研究报道了癫痫发作引起的血清白细胞介素-1β（IL-1β）、白细胞介素-6（IL-6）和白细胞介素-1受体拮抗剂（IL-1Ra）水平变化。由于癫痫活动，血清细胞因子水平在发作间期也可能受到干扰。

方法

本研究纳入了21例颞叶癫痫（TLE）患者（12例女性；平均年龄35±12.3岁）、17例颞叶外癫痫（XLE）患者（8例女性；平均年龄31.8±10.4岁）和20名正常对照者（10例女性；平均年龄35.6±8.8岁）。比较了TLE组、XLE组发作间期和正常对照组的血清IL-1β、IL-6和IL-1Ra水平。
