In autism:
Mast cell activation and autism
Neuro-inflammation, blood-brain barrier, seizures and autism
Mast cell activation and autism
Neuro-inflammation, blood-brain barrier, seizures and autism
"Recent evidence indicates that neuro-inflammation could contribute
to seizures. We hypothesize that brain mast cell activation due to
allergic, environmental and/or stress triggers could lead to focal
disruption of the blood-brain barrier and neuro-inflammation, thus
contributing to the development of seizures."
