Optical mapping of neuronal activity during seizures in zebrafish [PDF]
Mapping neuronal activity during the onset and propagation of epileptic seizures can provide a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying this pathology and improve our approaches to the development of new drugs.

Neomycin induces increased expression of Xaf1 in cochlear HCs, triggering PANoptosis, which encompasses pyroptosis, apoptosis and necroptosis (left). Targeted Xaf1 knockdown in HCs through gene therapy can significantly inhibit the occurrence of PANoptosis in HCs (right).

Background: Epilepsy, ataxia, sensorineural deafness, tubulopathy syndrome is a multi-organ disorder that links to autosomal recessive mutations in the KCNJ10 gene, which encodes for the Kir4.1 potassium channel. It is mostly described in consanguineous,

Gland and Hormonal Diseases (GHDs) constitute a class of non-communicable diseases that primarily results from either excessive or reduced secretion of hormones. Many of these diseases also have neurological manifestations.

Genetics update: monogenetics, polygene disorders and the quest for modifying genes [PDF]
The genetic channelopathies are a broad collection of diseases. Many ion channel genes demonstrate wide phenotypic pleiotropy, but nonetheless concerted efforts have been made to characterise genotype-phenotype relationships.

Abstract Chloride intracellular channels (CLICs) are important in cardiac cellular physiology. We aimed to determine the pathophysiological roles of CLICs in the heart. For this, we analyzed CLIC expression in cardiomyocytes in a mouse transverse aortic constriction (TAC) model to induce cardiac hypertrophy and failure, as well as in ventricular ...

ABSTRACT Objective Paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) is the most common hereditary paroxysmal movement disorder. The PRRT2 gene is the first identified causative gene and accounts for the majority of PKD. In this study, we investigated the pathogenicity of PRRT2 variants in the splice regions. Methods Patients with clinically suspected PKD and no

Functional Characterization of Mutations in Kir4.1 (KCNJ10) Associated with the SeSAME Syndrome [PDF]
Kir4.1 channels are expressed in many brain cells, particularly astrocytes, and may be responsible for the K+ buffering action of the glia (J Biol Chem 270: 16339-46, 1995). In addition, Kir4.1 channels are found in the basolateral membrane of distal convoluted tubule cells, where they contribute to renal electrolyte homeostasis.

Endogenous Retrovirus Insertion in the KIT Oncogene Determines White and White spotting in Domestic Cats [PDF]
The Dominant White locus (W) in the domestic cat demonstrates pleiotropic effects exhibiting complete penetrance for absence of coat pigmentation and incomplete penetrance for deafness and iris hypopigmentation.

Novel KCNJ10 Gene Variations Compromise Function of Inwardly Rectifying Potassium Channel 4.1
TheKCNJ10gene encoding Kir4.1 contains numerous SNPs whose molecular effects remain unknown. We investigated the functional consequences of uncharacterized SNPs (Q212R, L166Q, and G83V) on homomeric (Kir4.1) and heteromeric (Kir4.1-Kir5.1) channel function.
