Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery
Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Objective
Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...Anni Saarela, Veera‐Julia Kuronen, Oskari Timonen, Leena Jutila, Katri Silvennoinen, Annemari Kilpeläinen, Jarkko Kirjavainen, Reetta Kälviäinen +7 morewiley +1 more sourceEye movement disorders are an early manifestation of CACNA1A mutations in children

PLoS Biology, 2015 Autophagy helps deliver sequestered intracellular cargo to lysosomes for proteolytic degradation and thereby maintains cellular homeostasis by preventing accumulation of toxic substances in cells.Xuejun Tian, Upasana Gala, Yongping Zhang, Weina Shang, Sonal Nagarkar Jaiswal, Alberto di Ronza, Manish Jaiswal, Shinya Yamamoto, Hector Sandoval, Lita Duraine, Marco Sardiello, Roy V Sillitoe, Kartik Venkatachalam, Hengyu Fan, Hugo J Bellen, Chao Tong +15 moredoaj +1 more sourceEpilepsy‐associated SCN2A‐L1342P mutation drives network hyperexcitability and widespread transcriptomic changes in human cortical organoids
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective
SCN2A pathogenic mutations, such as the recurrent heterozygous Nav1.2‐L1342P, are monogenic causes of epilepsy. In this human‐induced pluripotent stem cell–derived model system, we aim to investigate the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying SCN2A‐L1342P‐associated pathology. Methods

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective
Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.Sarah Duerinckx, Barbara Gravel, Julie Soblet, Benjamin Legros, Susana Ferrao Santos, Wim Van Paesschen, Estelle Rikir, Epi25 Collaborative, Siwei Chen, Zaid Afawi, Quratulain Zulfiqar Ali, Danielle M.
