Abstract
In adult patients with epilepsy, interictal ghrelin levels did not differ from controls, though the AG/UAG ratio was imbalanced. Interpretation of the latter phenomenon is uncertain. Further, levels of AG and UAG were in direct proportion to disease duration, which may represent a long-term compensatory mechanism, antagonistic to the epileptic process.
