Study of Neuronal Apoptosis ceRNA Network in Hippocampal Sclerosis of Human Temporal Lobe Epilepsy by RNA-Seq

Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is one of the most common pathological type of intractable temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), often characterized by hippocampal atrophy, neuronal apoptosis, and gliogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms of neuronal apoptosis in patients with HS are still not fully underst...

description Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is one of the most common pathological type of intractable temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), often characterized by hippocampal atrophy, neuronal apoptosis, and gliogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms of neuronal apoptosis in patients with HS are still not fully understood. We therefore conducted a pilot study focusing on the neuronal apoptosis ceRNA network in the sclerotic hippocampus of intractable TLE patients. In this research, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was utilized to quantify the expression levels of lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs in TLE patients with HS (HS-TLE) and without HS (non-HS-TLE), and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). The interactions of differential expression (DE) lncRNAs-miRNAs or DEmiRNAs-mRNAs were integrated by StarBase v3.0, and visualized using Cytoscape.
