Off-Label Use of an Anti-Hypertensive to Treat Epilepsy
University of Arizona researchers have found the angiotensin II receptor blocker, Candesartan, to effectively reduce epileptic activity.
Background:
As the most prevalent neurological disease, epilepsy is estimated to affect around 50 million people worldwide. In the United States, it is estimated that around 470,000 children and 3 million adults...

Leukocyte RNA Expression: A Novel Neurosurgical Genomics Technique for Predicting Seizure-Free Outcome following Stereotactic Laser Amygdalohippocampotomy
This technology provides a novel set of gene-based biomarkers to predict seizure free results in Stereotactic Laser Amygdalohippocampotomy (SLAH) for epileptic patients. These biomarkers are based on leukocyte RNA expression so the prognosis can be easily done by a blood draw instead of a brain biopsy.
Background:
Drug resistant epilepsy patients...
