Research progress of micro ribonucleic acid related to drug-resistant epilepsy / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Epilepsy is a common chronic nervous system disease, about one third of patients with intractable epilepsy, which brings a heavy burden to the society. At present, the specific etiology and drug-resistant mechanism are still unclear. Minimally invasive, reliable and economic biomarkers are of great help to improve the diagnosis and prognosis of drug-resistant epilepsy. In recent years, microRNA has gradually become a research hotspot of intractable epilepsy and is expected to become a biomarker. This paper briefly reviews the microRNA related to intractable epilepsy.
