PAFAH1B1 haploinsufficiency disrupts GABA neurons and synaptic E/I balance in the dentate gyrus
Hemizygous mutations in the human gene encoding platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase IB subunit alpha (Pafah1b1), also called Lissencephaly-1, can cause classical lissencephaly, a severe malformation of cortical development.

Molecular Genetics of Lissencephaly and Functions of LIS1 in Cell Division [PDF]
Lissencephaly (smooth brain) is a brain malformation disorder resulted from defective neuronal migration during early development. Deletion or mutation of many genes involved in the regulation of the microtubule (MT) and actin cytoskeletons have been ...

Tc-99-HmPAO SPECT in 13 patients with classic lissencephaly
In this study, technetium-99 (Tc-99)-hexamethylpropyleneamine-oxine single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) was performed on 13 children with classic lissencephaly (nine with epileptic seizures, four without seizures).

Dysregulation of mTOR signalling is a converging mechanism in lissencephaly.
Cerebral cortex development in humans is a highly complex and orchestrated process that is under tight genetic regulation. Rare mutations that alter gene expression or function can disrupt the structure of the cerebral cortex, resulting in a range of ...

Publisher Summary Lissencephaly type II is a group of complex brain malformations that anatomically consists of “cobblestone” cortex, abnormal white matter, enlarged ventricles, small brainstem, hypoplastic vermis, and cerebellar polymicrogyria. The spectrum varies from a mild disorganization of the brain layers to severely dysplastic brains.

Clinical case of the month. Miller-Dieker (lissencephaly) syndrome [PDF]
We present the case of a 10-year-old boy who presents with a severe epilepsy resistant to medical treatment in the context of a Miller-Dieker syndrome. This patient underwent the implantation of a pneumogastric nerve stimulator. We describe the patient's
