Epileptogenesis is the process that leads the brain into epileptic activity. Clinical evidence shows that [~]90% of people with epilepsy present rhythmicity in the timing of their seizures presentation. However, whether the circadian clock is a key player during epileptogenesis remains unknown. Here, we triggered epileptogenesis in mice by the intra-amygdala injection of kainic acid and profiled by RNA sequencing their hippocampal diurnal mRNA rhythmicity. We show that epileptogenesis largely reshapes the hippocampal transcriptomic rhythmicity and that the molecular clock machinery is inhibited due to the disruption of the core clock gene Bmal1. We identified relevant dysregulated pathways and their dynamics in epileptogenesis, predicting a key role for microglial-driven neuroinflammation. We predicted the genes that Bmal1 is directly controlling over time. Finally, we sought for translational relevance evidence by performing RNA sequencing in hippocampal samples resected from patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (mTLE-HS) and cross-analyzing datasets.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
