Abstract Objective To determine the frequency of monogenic variants and pathogenic copy number variants (CNVs) in adults with surgically treated temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Methods We performed exome sequencing (ES), including CNV analysis, in 45 adults with TLE who had previously undergone epilepsy surgery.

Fenfluramine in Rett syndrome: A multidimensional clinical study
Abstract Objective Rett syndrome (RTT) is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder frequently associated with drug‐resistant epilepsy, autonomic dysfunction, respiratory abnormalities, sleep disturbances, and behavioral impairment. Fenfluramine has shown efficacy in developmental and epileptic encephalopathies and may provide broader therapeutic benefits ...

Altered gene expression in the liver and small intestine of horses with equine neuroaxonal dystrophy
Abstract Background Equine neuroaxonal dystrophy/degenerative myeloencephalopathy (eNAD/EDM) is the second most common diagnosis of spinal ataxia in horses in the United States. The disease develops due to a combination of vitamin E deficiency and an unknown genetic risk factor(s), and there currently is no effective treatment.

What's New? Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is more aggressive than lung adenocarcinoma, and is most often diagnosed at an advanced stage. Here, the authors evaluated gene expression data from LUSC tumors and came up with gene signatures for 34 genetic abnormalities whose expression changes throughout different precancerous stages. Several of these
