Retracted on the author's request: "We would like to withdraw our manuscript. We restarted the project for further study last year, we found that the results in this study are not solid enough and need to be further explored."

The Level of Neuregulin-1 after Traumatic Brain Injury and Formation of Post-Traumatic Epilepsy

We evaluated the serum level of neuregulin-1 in humans with traumatic brain injury. The highest levels of neuregulin-1 were revealed in patients with developing post-traumatic epilepsy and the lowest concentrations of this peptide were found in healthy controls. The patients with traumatic brain injury not aggravated by the development of post-traumatic epilepsy had intermediate levels of neuregulin-1.
