Epilepsy, a common neurological disorder, is characterized by paroxysmal, short-term, repetitive, and stereotypical features, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. Currently, the pathogenesis of epilepsy remains incompletely understood. Changes in neuronal excitability, imbalances in glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels, alterations in the activity of GABA receptors, and dysfunction of GABA receptors are considered closely related to its occurrence. Thyroid hormones, vital for human growth and development, also play a crucial role in the nervous system. They mediate oxidative stress, influence reactive oxygen species production, affect mitochondrial function and neuronal excitability, and modulate glutamate and GABA levels. Also, they combine with thyroid hormone receptors and exert genomic effects by regulating the expression of numerous genes. However, once there are defects in thyroid hormone signaling, these defects may lead to severe neurodevelopmental disorders that are associated with an increased frequency of seizures. The impact of antiseizure medications (ASMs) on serum thyroid hormone levels, particularly traditional ASMs, has been extensively studied. It is reported that conventional ASMs such as phenobarbital, phenytoin sodium, carbamazepine, and valproate sodium were more likely to induce subclinical hypothyroidism (elevated TSH with normal FT4) or isolated hypothyroidism (decreased FT4 with normal TSH). However, the new ASMs, such as levetiracetam, have no effect on thyroid hormone levels. Together, seizures not only affect thyroid hormone levels, but abnormal thyroid hormone levels can also influence seizures. However, the precise mechanism underlying the interaction between serum thyroid hormone levels and seizures remains unclear. This review aims to explore the relationship between thyroid hormone levels and seizures, along with the underlying mechanisms.
