Implication of fibroblast growth factors in epileptogenesis-associated circuit rearrangements

Implication of fibroblast growth factors in epileptogenesis-associated circuit rearrangements

The transformation of a normal brain in epileptic (epileptogenesis) is associated with extensive morpho-functional alterations, including cell death, axonal and dendritic plasticity, neurogenesis, and others. Neurotrophic factors (NTFs) appear to be very strongly implicated in these phenomena. In th...
