Analysis of GABRG2 C588T polymorphism in genetic epilepsy and evaluation of GABRG2 in drug treatment
Epilepsy is a common disorder with complex inheritance, and its treatment is very unsatisfactory. An association between the GABRG2 C588T polymorphism and genetic generalized epilepsy has been studied by several genetic association studies.

Whole Genome Sequence Data From Captive Baboons Implicate RBFOX1 in Epileptic Seizure Risk
In this study, we investigate the genetic determinants that underlie epilepsy in a captive baboon pedigree and evaluate the potential suitability of this non-human primate model for understanding the genetic etiology of human epilepsy.

CLINICAL AND GENETIC HETEROGENITY OF JUVENILE MYOCLONIC EPILEPSY
The idiopathic generalized epilepsies constitute roughly one-third of all epilepsies. Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (Janz syndrome) is characterized by myoclonic jerks on awakening, generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and typical absences, with the latter ...
