Abstract:
In the past decade, significant progress has been made in the study of epilepsy-causing genetic mutations and the molecular mechanisms of epilepsy clinical manifestations.A growing number of studies have shown that the mechanism of action of pathogenic genes related to clinical symptoms shows significant correlation.In the selection of antiepileptic drugs for patients with different gene mutation, early identification of pathogenic genes has guiding significance for the selection of antiepileptic drugs.This review summairzes common epilepsy pathogenic genes, including ion channels genes, cellular metabolism related genes and cell signaling pathway related genes, and research progress on therapeutic targets corresponding to pathogenic genes in recent years.As research deepens, specific gene defects and their machanisms of action provide a basis for studying new treatment methods.
