Regulatory domain or CpG site variation in SLC12A5, encoding the chloride transporter KCC2, in human autism and schizophrenia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Many encoded gene products responsible for neurodevelopmental disorders (NDs) like autism spectrum disorders (ASD), schizophrenia (SCZ), intellectual disability (ID), and idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) converge on networks controlling synaptic ...

Neonatal seizures and GABAergic drugs: Scylla and Charybdis?

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Neonates have a high incidence of seizures that are frequently difficult to control with conventional first‐line anti‐seizure medications, which are gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonists. The reasons for this clinical problem are multifold but are likely related to the unique physiology of the immature nervous system. Specifically, the early

KCC2 Antibody Specificity in Rat.

open access: yes, 2015
Expression of K-Cl cotransporter (KCC2) in rat prefrontal cortex with varying protein concentration (5 μg, 10 μg, 20 μg). Two different antibodies gave similar bands for KCC2 at the predefined molecular weight (123–126 kDa) (A).

Calpain fosters the hyperexcitability of motoneurons after spinal cord injury and leads to spasticity

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Up-regulation of the persistent sodium current (INaP) and down-regulation of the potassium/chloride extruder KCC2 lead to spasticity after spinal cord injury (SCI). We here identified calpain as the driver of the up- and down-regulation of INaP and KCC2,

Spinal cord dorsal horn sensory gate in preclinical models of chemotherapy-induced painful neuropathy and contact dermatitis chronic itch becomes less leaky with Kcc2 gene expression-enhancing treatments

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Low intraneuronal chloride in spinal cord dorsal horn (SCDH) pain relay neurons is of critical relevance for physiological transmission of primary sensory afferents because low intraneuronal chloride dictates GABA-ergic and glycin-ergic neurotransmission

Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.

The effect of repeated stress on KCC2 and NKCC1 immunoreactivity in the hippocampus of female mice

open access: yesData in Brief, 2016
K+–Cl− co-transporter (KCC2) and Na+–K+–2Cl− co-transporter (NKCC1) are the main regulators of neuronal intracellular chloride concentration; altered expression patterns of KCC2 and NKCC1 have been reported in several neurodegenerative diseases.

Sex‐specific differences in mortality and neurocardiac interactions in the Kv1.1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The Kcna1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) exhibits sex‐specific differences in SUDEP risk. Female mice exhibit a lower SUDEP risk than males, despite similar seizure characteristics and interictal cardiac function across sexes.

INSIGHTS INTO THE EFFECTS OF KCC2 MODULATION ON EPILEPTIFORM ACTIVITY

open access: yes, 2021
KCC2 is a K+-Cl- cotransporter with neuronal expression throughout the central nervous system. Deficits in KCC2 activity have been implicated in a variety of neurological disorders, including epilepsy, chronic pain, autism spectrum disorders, and Rett ...

Sexually dimorphic expression of KCC2 and GABA function [PDF]

open access: yesEpilepsy Research, 2008
GABA(A) receptors have an age-adapted function in the brain. During early development, they mediate depolarizing effects, which result in activation of calcium-sensitive signaling processes that are important for the differentiation of the brain.
