Summary

This study is to identify the clinical criteria of drug resistant epilepsy and to explore whether SCN1A c.3184 A/G (rs2298771) and ccl2(rs1024611) polymorphisms could serve as genetic based biomarkers to predict drug resistance among epileptic patient.

Conditions

  • Epilepsy, Drug Resistant

Interventions

GENETIC

Genetic study for SCN1A c.3184 A/G and CCL2-2518G>A polymorphism:

DNA analysis: Genomic DNA will be extracted from EDTA-anticoagulated peripheral blood (QIAamp DNA Blood mini kit,QIAGEN). Genotyping of SCN1A c.3184 A/G(rs2298771) polymorphism
