Abstract
Several recent advances have contributed to our understanding of the processes associated with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy in humans and in experimental animal models. Common pathological features between the human condition and the animal models may indicate a fundamental involvement of the given pathology in the process of epileptogenesis.Keywords
