Abstract

Vitamin D memiliki peran penting selama perkembangan otak, proliferasi, diferensiasi, neurotrofik, dan neuroprotektif. Bentuk aktif vitamin D menekan inflamasi dan mengubah keseimbangan antara penghambat sitokin dan sitokin eksitasi. Bentuk aktif vitamin D menunjukkan efek imunomodulator dan secara efektif dapat menekan inflamasi, sehingga mempunyai efek antikonvulsan. Penderita epilepsi anak berisiko tinggi mengalami defisiensi vitamin D. Pemakaian obat antiepilepsi sebagai politerapi dihubungkan dengan penurunan kadar vitamin D yang lebih besar dibandingkan obat anti-epilepsi sebagai monoterapi. Pemberian vitamin D harus cukup untuk mempertahankan kadar normal 25(OH) D (≥30 ng/mL). Pemberian vitamin D pada epilepsi dapat meningkatkan batas ambang kejang secara signifikan dan mengurangi keparahan kejang.

Vitamin D has an important role during brain development, proliferation, differentiation, neurotrophic, and neuroprotection. The active form of vitamin D suppresses inflammation and changes the balance between inhibitory cytokines and excitatory cytokines. The active form of vitamin D shows an immunomodulatory effect and can effectively suppress inflammation so that it has an anticonvulsant effect. Epileptic children are in high risk of vitamin D deficiency. Antiepileptic polytherapy is associated with a greater reduction in vitamin D levels than in monotherapy. Vitamin D supplementation must be sufficient to maintain normal level of 25(OH)D (≥30 ng/mL). Vitamin D can significantly increase the seizure threshold and reduce the severity of seizure.
