Immunogenetic predisposing factors for mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis

Purpose: Neuroinflammation appears as an important epileptogenic mechanism. Experimental and clinical studies have demonstrated an upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β and TNF-α, in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE-HS).
