Bumetanide Treatment in 15 Children With Autism: A Randomised Waitlist‐Control Study
ABSTRACT Aim Bumetanide, a diuretic, influences neuronal chloride homeostasis and potentially restores GABAergic inhibition and neuronal signalling balance. This mechanism may contribute to improvements in autism‐related symptoms. The present study builds on the preclinical research and on previous clinical research on bumetanide treatment for children

Beyond ion transport: KCC2 makes cells walk and talk [PDF]
Tumour cells often express a repertoire of genes unusual for the cell lineage from which they originate. It is not surprising that these genes include ion channels and transporters, but because biophysicists are rarely interested in cancer biology, and scientists working on cancer often shy away from ion transport physiology, specific functions of ...

Abstract Epilepsy affects approximately 1% of the population worldwide, and although medications are effective in the majority of cases, seizures persist in approximately 30% of patients. Despite the effort to develop new antiseizure drugs, the rate of pharmacoresistance in patients has not diminished over the past 3 decades. There is thus a real unmet

WNK1/HSN2 isoform and the regulation of KCC2 activity [PDF]
Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 2 is a rare autosomal recessive pathology presenting with early onset peripheral sensory defects. It arises from mutations affecting a specific isoform of the WNK1 kinase (with-no-lysine protein kinase 1) termed WNK1/HSN2. The role of WNK1 in the nervous system is not well understood. In our recent paper,

Levels of Ca\u3csub\u3ev\u3c/sub\u3e1.2 L-Type Ca\u3csup\u3e2+\u3c/sup\u3e Channels Peak in the First Two Weeks in Rat Hippocampus Whereas Ca\u3csub\u3ev\u3c/sub\u3e1.3 Channels Steadily Increase through Development [PDF]
Influx of calcium through voltage-dependent channels regulates processes throughout the nervous system. Specifically, influx through L-type channels plays a variety of roles in early neuronal development and is commonly modulated by G-protein-coupled ...

Pathogenic potential of human SLC12A5 variants causing KCC2 dysfunction
SLC12A5 encodes K+-Cl- cotransporter 2 (KCC2), which is the main Cl- extruder of neurons, and renders the proper inhibitory function of the neurotransmitters γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine. Thus, any variant in SLC12A5, if it causes dysfunction of KCC2, could be pathogenic for neurological and psychiatric disorders by disrupting inhibition and ...
