Investigation into the antiepileptic efficacy and mechanism of combination vitamin D and Ganoderma Lucidum polysaccharides

University of Greenwich Faculty of Engineering and Science

Epilepsy, caused by abnormal firing of neurons in the brain, affects 50 million people globally [1]. Almost one-third of epileptic patients do not respond well to antiepileptic drugs, and their side effects are associated with cognitive impairment, psychiatric problems, and recurrent epileptic adverse reactions [2, 3].
