Mutations in neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) have been identified in the autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (ADNFLE). Despite the demonstration of a gain of function of the mutated receptors, the precise mechanisms leading to this nocturnal epilepsy are still unknown. In 2006 the investigators studied the nAChR cerebral distribution in a group of patients with ADNFLE carrying a nAChR mutation, by a PET-scan using [18F]-F-A-85380, a ligand with a high affinity and specificity for alpha4beta2 nicotinic receptors. The study showed a different pattern of brain distribution of the radiotracer in the ADNFLE patients when compared to a group of control subjects, with a significant increase of nicotinic receptor density in the patients in mesencephalon and cerebellum (Picard et al., Brain 2006). Based on the known biochemical and cellular circuits in the brainstem, these results suggest that the nAChR density increase in mesencephalon is involved in the pathophysiology of ADNFLE through the role of brainstem ascending cholinergic systems in arousal. The follow-up step consists of extending this examination to other forms of epilepsy, in order to verify the specificity of the hyperfixation pattern for ADNFLE, and search for a potential involvement of nicotinic receptors in other forms of epilepsy. The investigators aim to study 5 groups of subjects: control subjects (Group 1, 20 subjects); patients with a non lesional partial epilepsy and a predominance of diurnal seizures (Group 2, 12 subjects); patients with an idiopathic generalized epilepsy (Group 3, 12 subjects); patients with nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (Group 4, 3 subjects) and epileptic patients with vagal nerve stimulation (Group 5, 1 subject). For each patient, a cerebral MRI, [18F]- fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT and [18F]-F-A-85380 PET/CT examinations are planned. The investigators will perform data analyses on volume of distribution (Vt) parametric images which will be based on the ratio of brain tissue to unchanged F-A-85380 plasma at equilibrium. Statistical parametric mapping (SPM2) will be used to further study the parametric PET images. This study is primarily dedicated to demonstrate that the pattern of hyperfixation that was obtained in ADNFLE patients is specific for this disorder and does not constitute a common pattern to various forms of epilepsy. The investigators will also search for a possible involvement of the nAChRs in other forms of epilepsy.
