AB  - More and more studies are identifying the regulation of metal homeostasis as one of the key points of central nervous system’s
well-being. Epilepsy is a particularly interesting neurological condition when viewed in terms of the correlation between the
amount of metals and the development of a seizure. This lecture will present contribution of our group to the field of metal
biology in epilepsy by mapping brain metals in sclerotic hippocampus resected from drug resistant mesial temporal lobe
epilepsy (mTLE) patients as surgical therapeutic approach. Direct insight into this epileptogenic area, by two powerful techniques,
optical emission and mass spectrometry, has led us to investigation of copper turnover. Namely, among the examined metals,
we found the deficiency of copper in sclerotic hippocampus on two levels: (i) in whole structure (ii) and locally in the areas of
neuronal loss, with significant correlation between copper concentration and neuron density. Furthermore, analysis of copper
metalloproteins showed: (i) significant increase or decrease in levels of protein that is participating in copper transport into
the cell (CTR1) depending on the degree of hippocampal neuronal loss; (ii) and lower activity of an enzyme in which copper
is part of the active site, cytochrome c oxidase, in sclerotic hippocampi of patients compared to control tissue. In our further
investigations it remained to be determined whether changes in copper concentrations and copper metalloproteins are causal
to pathology of mTLE or they represent epiphenomenon.

AB  - The accumulating evidence on the relation between the disturbed metal homeostasis
and epilepsy urges the need for data regarding the total metal concentrations, as well
as metal distribution in the brain itself, in order to indicate where to direct the
potential therapy, to metal supplementation or chelation. This paper summarizes our
results on the measurements of some important essential metals in hippocampi of
patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) who underwent
amigdalohippocampectomy. The key findings point out that levels of copper and
manganese are deficient in hippocampi of mTLE patients, and that their
concentrations correlated positively with neuronal loss in affected regions of sclerotic
hippocampus. In addition, the Cu concentration was decreased in the areas of total
neuronal loss. Iron and zinc total hippocampal levels were neither accumulated nor
deficient compared to control. Our results contribute to deeper insight of metals
biology in the epilepsy and may represent the initial point of new and non-invasive
therapy of drug resistant epilepsy.
