Epilepside kişiye özel genetik tedavi yaklaşımları

Epilepsi dünyada %1 prevelansa sahip olduğu öngörülen, yaygın ve ciddi nörolojik bir durumdur. Epidemiyolojik çalışmalarda epilepsili hastaların %20-40’ının, antiepileptik tedaviye dirençli olduğu belirtilmiştir. Farmakolojik tedaviye direnç epilepsi tedavisinde en önemli problemlerden biri olmaktadır. Epilepsideki bu direncin altında yatan mekanizmalar açık değildir ancak çeşitli muhtemel hipotezler belirlenmiştir. Günümüzdeki çalışmalar, gen tedavileri ve kişiye özgü tedaviler üzerinde yoğunlaşmaktadır. Bu derlemede epilepsi tedavisinde yeni hedef moleküllerin bulunabilmesi açısından proteomik araştırmaların önemi tartışılmaktadır.

Individual genetic treatment approaches in epilepsy

Epilepsy is the most common serious neurological condition in the world, with an estimated prevalence of 1% of the population. Epidemiological data indicate that 20-40% of the patients with epilepsy are refractory to treatment with antiepileptic drugs. Pharmacoresistance is a major problem in the treatment of epilepsy. The mechanisms underlying pharmaco resistance in epilepsy are unclear, but several plausible hypotheses have emerged. Present studies are concentrated on indivudual treatments and gene therapies. In this review, importance of proteomics researchs in terms of find out the new molecular targets for the treatment of epilepsy were discussed.
