The link between endoplasmic reticulum stress and glial cell activation-mediated neuroinflammation in epilepsy
Epilepsy is a chronic disease characterized by recurrent,sudden,and excessive synchronous discharge of neurons in the brain,leading to transient brain dysfunction,and inflammatory responses in specific regions within the central nervous system are common features of epilepsy.In recent years,there has been increasing evidence that endoplasmic reticulum stress is involved in the pathology of epilepsy,which activates the unfolded protein response,then regulate and control nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB),efficiently induces glial cell activation through the release of pro-inflammatory signals,in turn affects epileptogenesis and seizures by triggering neuroinflammation.This review focuses on the close link between endoplasmic reticulum stress and glial cell activation-mediated neuroinflammation in epilepsy pathology,aiming to provide insights for a deeper understanding of epilepsy.
