Abstract
Epilepsy is a neurological disease characterized by recurring unprovoked seizures which seriously affect daily activities, physical and mental health of epileptic patients. Epilepsy affects people of all ages, races, social classes. Despite considerable progress in clinical and preclinical epilepsy research, the pathophysiology of epilepsy remains an open question. LncRNAs are a heterogeneous group of non-coding RNA molecules that can perform a wide range of molecular and cellular functions by employing various modes of action. LncRNAs regulate the expression of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the CNS. SNHG16 is a newly identified oncogene that has been shown to regulate certain inflammatory pathways. Several studies suggest that vitamin D3 raises the threshold of chemically induced seizures and suppresses epileptic activity by reducing the expression of certain proconvulsant cytokines in addition to its anti-inflammatory role in the CNS. Aim of the work The aim of the present work was to study the relation between lncRNA SNHG16 and vitamin D3 status in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy Egyptian patients.
