Mutations in GPAA1, Encoding a GPI Transamidase Complex Protein, Cause Developmental Delay, Epilepsy, Cerebellar Atrophy, and Osteopenia. [PDF]

, 2017
Approximately one in every 200 mammalian proteins is anchored to the cell membrane through a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor. These proteins play important roles notably in neurological development and function. To date, more than 20 genes have

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Dietary modulation of cortical excitation and inhibition [PDF]

, 2017
The balance of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters in the brain affects both neural responses and behaviour in humans and animals. Here we investigated whether dietary intervention aimed at increasing levels of the inhibitory neurotransmitter ...

Neonatal seizures: Advances in diagnosis and management

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) created the ILAE Neonatal Task Force that classified neonatal seizures, defined neonatal epilepsy syndromes, and specified treatment guidelines. These frameworks, in addition to improved access to genetic testing and other recent advances, have revolutionized the diagnosis and management of ...

Long‐read sequencing of recurrent FGF12 duplications in epilepsy: Insights into structural mechanisms and aberrant isoforms

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Fibroblast growth factor 12 (FGF12), a member of the fibroblast homologous factor family, plays a key role in the modulation of voltage‐gated sodium (Nav) channels. Pathogenic variants in the FGF12 gene leading to a gain‐of‐function mechanism and partial duplication encompassing the FGF12 gene leading to a loss‐of‐function mechanism ...

Genetics update: monogenetics, polygene disorders and the quest for modifying genes [PDF]

, 2018
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.

A Case of Pyridoxine Dependent Epilepsy Presented with Status Epilepticus

Journal of Pediatric Emergency and Intensive Care Medicine, 2019
Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare autosomal recessive encephalopathy due to mutations in the ALDH7A1 gene. Intractable seizures are the most frequent clinical form in the early infantile period.

Infantile spams without hypsarrhythmia: A study of 16 cases [PDF]

, 2010
In this study, we present the electroclinical features and evolution of patients with epileptic spasms (ES) in clusters without hypsarrhythmia and with or without focal or generalized paroxysmal discharges on the interictal EEG.

Genetic risk factor identification for common epilepsies guided by integrative omics data analysis

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs) comprise the most common genetically determined epilepsy syndromes, following a complex mode of inheritance. Although many important common and rare genetic factors causing or contributing to these epilepsies have been identified in the past decades, many features of the genetic architecture are ...

Untargeted Metabolomics for Diagnosis, Monitoring, and Understanding the Pathophysiology of Inherited Metabolic Disorders

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) encompass a diverse and expanding group of rare diseases caused by genetic disruptions mainly in metabolic enzymes and transporters. Clinical diagnosis of IMDs presents significant challenges due to phenotypic heterogeneity, nonspecific symptoms, and the limited scope of current targeted biochemical assays ...
