Abstract：
:The inflammatory response mediated by microglia in the central nervous system is closely related to epilepsy. Notch signaling plays an important role in the microglial activation during hypoxia. This study aimed to investigate whether Notch signaling is involved in microglial activation and subsequent inflammation-related neuronal injury during the process of epileptogenesis in a rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy. By using western blotting, real-time quantitative PCR, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence labeling, we found that the expression of Notch signaling increased after status epilepticus and that a γ-secretase inhibitor could significantly inhibit the upregulation of Notch signaling, the activation of microglia, and the release of proinflammatory cytokines. Likewise, the neuronal apoptosis and loss in the hippocampus after SE were attenuated by the γ-secretase inhibitor. These results suggest that Notch signaling plays a key role in neuroinflammation and inflammation-related neuronal damage in epilepsy, and γ-secretase inhibitors may become a novel prospective therapeutic agent for epilepsy.
