Novel phenotype associated with a mutation in the KCNA1(Kv1.1) gene [PDF]
Episodic ataxia type 1 (EA1) is an autosomal dominant K+ channelopathy which manifests with short attacks of cerebellar ataxia and dysarthria, and may also show interictal myokymia.

Generalized myokymia, or neuromyotonia, or both in dogs with or without spinocerebellar ataxia
Background KCNJ10 and CAPN1 variants cause “spinocerebellar” ataxia in dogs, but their association with generalized myokymia and neuromyotonia remains unclear.

Mutation analysis of the SLC26A4, FOXI1 and KCNJ10 genes in individuals with congenital hearing loss [PDF]
Pendred syndrome (PDS) and DFNB4 comprise a phenotypic spectrum of sensorineural hearing loss disorders that typically result from biallelic mutations of the SLC26A4 gene. Although PDS and DFNB4 are recessively inherited, sequencing of the coding regions

Common variants of KCNJ10 are associated with susceptibility and anti-epileptic drug resistance in Chinese genetic generalized epilepsies. [PDF]
To explore genetic mechanism of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs) is challenging because of their complex heritance pattern and genetic heterogeneity.

KCNK5 channels mostly expressed in cochlear outer sulcus cells are indispensable for hearing [PDF]
International audienceIn the cochlea, K þ is essential for mechano-electrical transduction. Here, we explore cochlear structure and function in mice lacking K þ channels of the two-pore domain family.
