The application discloses application of
pomalidomide in preparation of a
medicine for preventing or treating seizures of
Dravet syndrome or an antiepileptic
medicine, and relates to the technical field of
Dravet syndrome and medicines for preventing and treating
epilepsy. The application discloses application of
pomalidomide in preparation of a
medicine for preventing or treating seizures of
Dravet syndrome or an antiepileptic medicine. The
epilepsy intervention potential of
pomalidomide is verified in a mouse model of Dravet syndrome related to SCN1A
mutation for the first time. The pomalidomide can significantly increase a body temperature threshold required for seizures, reduce a seizure duration, reduce a Racine
score grade, and improve long-term
survival rate, and thus indicates that the pomalidomide has significant neuroprotective and anti-seizure abilities. Intervention of the pomalidomide on an early stage of
immune activation can also effectively reduce a subsequent seizure risk, which has a reference value for "pre-heat
drug administration" or "intervention on children with high
infection risk" in the clinic.
