Epilepsy‐associated SCN2A‐L1342P mutation drives network hyperexcitability and widespread transcriptomic changes in human cortical organoids

open access: yesEpilepsia, 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 Using a human male induced pluripotent stem

Vigabatrin for Infantile Spasms

open access: yes, 1999
The efficacy of vigabatrin (VGB) as the first, and adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) or valproate (VPA) as the second, treatment of choice for newly diagnosed infantile spasms was evaluated in 42 infants treated at the University of Helsinki ...

Refining diagnostic boundaries and electroclinical profiles of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome through unsupervised clustering

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy defined by polymorphic seizures, intellectual disability (ID), and characteristic electroencephalographic (EEG) patterns. The applicability and biological validity of current electroclinical criteria remain debated.

Neurotransmission Sex Dichotomy in the Rat Hypothalamic Paraventricular Nucleus in Healthy and Infantile Spasm Model

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
We profiled the gene expressions in the hypothalamic paraventricular nuclei of 12 male and 12 female pups from a standard rat model of infantile spasms to determine the sex dichotomy of the neurotransmission genomic fabrics.

Developmental pathways to autism in tuberous sclerosis complex: Evidence from a longitudinal cohort

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The association between autism spectrum disorder (hereafter referred to as autism) and tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is well established, yet the developmental pathways linking genetic mutation, cortical pathology, and epilepsy with autism remain unclear. The Tuberous Sclerosis 2000 Study recruited children newly diagnosed with TSC (N = 125)

Abnormal KCC2 expression and function in a mouse model of epilepsy and tuberous sclerosis complex

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy is a common, severe manifestation of the genetic disorder tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Although significant mechanistic and therapeutic advances have been made in TSC, treatments for seizures remain largely ineffective.

Phenotypic and transcriptomic characterization of biallelic RNU2‐2 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A significant proportion of individuals with suspected genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) remain unsolved following whole genome sequencing (WGS). Here we describe biallelic RNU2‐2 variants causing a recently reported, severe, recessive DEE.

Infantile Spasms in Children with Down Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Down syndrome (DS) is the most common genetic cause of mental retardation. It is estimated that 5–13% of persons affected by DS have seizures. Infantile spasms are the most common type of seizures and usually are well controlled with steroids and ...
