Abstract
Objective
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a monogenetic disorder associated with sustained mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation, leading to heterogeneous clinical manifestations. Epilepsy and renal angiomyolipoma are the most important causes of morbidity in adult people with TSC (pwTSC). mTOR is a key player in inflammation, which in turn could influence TSC-related clinical manifestations. Reliable biomarkers are lacking to monitor and predict evolution and response to treatment for epilepsy in pwTSC. Inflammation has been implicated in epileptogenesis in non–TSC-related epilepsy. ...
