Increased CPA6 promoter methylation in focal epilepsy and in febrile seizures

Highlights • We assessed DNA methylation level of CPA6 promoter in peripheral blood of epileptic patients. • CPA6 higher methylation status was found in focal epilepsy patients and febrile seizures patients. • In epigenetic epilepsy field, first time such results have been found in blood samples of...
