Serum NT-pro CNP levels in epileptic seizure, psychogenic non-epileptic seizure, and healthy subjects
2018
Purpose
Epileptic seizure is the result of uncontrollable neural excitation in the brain. The C-type natriuretic peptide is a member of natriuretic peptide hormone family and is synthesized by brain and blood vessels in CNS. NT-pro CNP is an amino-terminal fragment of C-type natriuretic peptide and is more stable compared to its predecessor. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the role of NT-pro CNP in psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, epileptic seizures, and normal subjects.
