Abstract
Epilepsy is an abnormal neurologic disorder distinguished by the recurrent manifestation of seizures, and the precise underlying mechanisms for its development and progression remain uncertain. In recent years, the hypothesis that inflammatory mediators and corresponding pathways contribute to seizures has been supported by experimental results. The potential involvement of neuroinflammation in the development of epilepsy has garnered growing interest. This review centers attention on the involvement of inflammatory mediators in the emergence and progression of epilepsy within recent years, focusing on both clinical research and animal models, to enhance comprehension of the intricate interplay between brain inflammation and epileptogenesis.
