Functional Characterization and Pathogenicity Classification of PRRT2 Splice Variants in PRRT2‐Related Disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 12, Issue 12, Page 2558-2568, December 2025.
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

Dimethylation of Histone 3 Lysine 9 is sensitive to the epileptic activity, and affects the transcriptional regulation of the potassium channel Kcnj10 gene in epileptic rats

open access: yesMolecular Medicine Reports, 2017
Potassium channels can be affected by epileptic seizures and serve a crucial role in the pathophysiology of epilepsy. Dimethylation of histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9me2) and its enzyme euchromatic histone‑lysine N‑methyltransferase 2 (G9a) are the major epigenetic modulators and are associated with gene silencing.

Aquaporin-4-dependent K(+) and water transport modeled in brain extracellular space following neuroexcitation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Potassium (K(+)) ions released into brain extracellular space (ECS) during neuroexcitation are efficiently taken up by astrocytes. Deletion of astrocyte water channel aquaporin-4 (AQP4) in mice alters neuroexcitation by reducing ECS [K(+)] accumulation ...

Deciphering SCN2A: A comprehensive review of rodent models of Scn2a dysfunction

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 66, Issue 12, Page 4624-4638, December 2025.
Abstract SCN2A encodes for the alpha subunit of the voltage‐gated sodium channel NaV1.2, which is involved in action potential initiation and backpropagation in excitatory neurons. Currently, it is one of the highest monogenetic risk factors for both epilepsy and autism spectrum disorder.

Targeting Histone H3K9 Methyltransferase G9a as a Potential Therapeutic Strategy for Neuropsychiatric Disorders

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1547-1563, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Neuropsychiatric disorders present a multifaceted challenge, characterized by cognitive, social, and motor impairments with manifold underlying mechanisms. Recent attention has turned to epigenetic mechanisms, particularly histone lysine methyltransferases (HKMTs), such as G9a, in understanding fundamental pathogenesis.

WONOEP XVII appraisal: Targeting network excitability beyond the synapse ‐Neurotransmitter, ionic, and electro ‐diffusions

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 66, Issue 11, Page 4139-4161, November 2025.
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

Genetic Diversity and Expanded Phenotypes in Dystonia: Insights From Large‐Scale Exome Sequencing

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 12, Issue 8, Page 1648-1659, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective Dystonia is one of the most prevalent movement disorders, characterized by significant clinical and etiological heterogeneity. Despite considerable heritability (~25%), the etiology in most patients remains elusive. Moreover, understanding correlations between clinical manifestations and genetic variants has become increasingly ...
