Neuroanatomical Alterations in the CNTNAP2 Mouse Model of Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with neurodevelopmental alterations, including atypical forebrain cellular organization. Mutations in several ASD-related genes often result in cerebral cortical anomalies, such as the abnormal developmental ...

Polymicrogyria and deletion 22q11.2 syndrome: Window to the etiology of a common cortical malformation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Several brain malformations have been described in rare patients with the deletion 22q11.2 syndrome (DEL22q11) including agenesis of the corpus callosum, pachygyria or polymicrogyria (PMG), cerebellar anomalies and meningomyelocele, with PMG reported ...

Mild malformations of cortical development in sleep-related hypermotor epilepsy due to KCNT1 mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mutations in the sodium-activated potassium channel gene KCNT1 have been associated with nonlesional sleep-related hypermotor epilepsy (SHE). We report the co-occurrence of mild malformation of cortical development (mMCD) and KCNT1 mutations in four ...

Convergent and Divergent Mechanisms of Epileptogenesis in mTORopathies

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2021
Hyperactivation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) due to mutations in genes along the PI3K-mTOR pathway and the GATOR1 complex causes a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders (termed mTORopathies) associated with malformation of

A Classification Scheme for Malformations of Cortical Development

open access: yesNeuropediatrics, 1996
Malformations of the cerebral cortex are being recognized more frequently as a cause of epilepsy, developmental delay, neurological deficits, and mental retardation. Nonetheless, a standard nomenclature and classification system of these malformations, based upon state-of-the art knowledge derived from genetics, embryology, imaging, and pathology, has ...

The changing landscape in epilepsy imaging: Unmasking subtle and unique entities

open access: yesDiagnostic and Interventional Radiology, 2022
Dramatic changes have occurred recently in the field of epilepsy, including a fundamental shift in the etiology of epileptogenic substrates found at surgery. Hippocampal sclerosis is no longer the most common etiology found at epilepsy surgery and this
