[Abstract] Objective To explore the expression and distribution of GAD-65/67 in patients with ?forcal cortical dysplasia (FCD) epilepsy. Methods Surgical focus specimen of inpatients were collected from the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University and the Affiliated Second Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from October 2017 to October 2019. The expression of GAD-65/67 was observed by immunohistochemical staining in 23 patients with FCD epilepsy who underwent surgical resection (the experimental group) and 7 normal brain tissues without epilepsy (the control group). All the stained sections were examined under a microscope and photographed with a digital camera and the image chromatic aberration was analyzed by IEE 7.0 software. Results The expression of GAD-65/67 was found in both the experimental group and the control group. In the control group, GAD-65/67 was found to be evenly distributed in nerve fibers and synapses in brain tissue. In the experimental group, abnormal morphology and arrangement of neurons were observed and the expression and distribution of GAD-65/67 were changed correspondingly. Conclusion This study suggests that the abnormal distribution of GAD-65/67 may be attributed to the abnormal development of cerebral cortex in FCD, resulting in the decrease of GABA inhibition.

癲癇是常見(jiàn)的神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)疾病,嚴(yán)重影響患者的生活質(zhì)量,其中局灶腦皮質(zhì)發(fā)育不良(FCD)是難治性癲癇的重要原因之一,其確切的發(fā)病機(jī)制仍不清楚,內(nèi)科治療及外科手術(shù)仍難以控制癲癇發(fā)作[1-2]。有學(xué)者認(rèn)為,癲癇是由大腦皮層神經(jīng)網(wǎng)絡(luò)興奮性和抑制性因素之間的不平衡引起的過(guò)度興奮現(xiàn)象,再加上大量神經(jīng)元群體中的強(qiáng)烈同步放電所引起[3],γ-氨基丁酸(GABA)是重要的中樞抑制性遞質(zhì),分布于神經(jīng)軸突和小神經(jīng)元,GABA由谷氨酰胺通過(guò)谷氨酸脫羧酶(GAD)的催化下合成,GAD是GABA的限速酶,GAD存在GAD65和GAD67兩種同工酶[4]。目前有研究表明GABA與癲癇、焦慮癥、精神分裂癥、僵硬綜合癥等疾病相關(guān)[5-6]。本研究擬通過(guò)FCD癲癇患者病灶處GAD-65/67的表達(dá)分布情況探討FCD相關(guān)性癲癇的發(fā)病機(jī)制,現(xiàn)報(bào)道如下。
