Home-cage behavior in Scn1a+/- mice.
(A) 8-10week-old Scn1a+/- mice (n = 15, 8 male) were hypoactive compared with littermate WT mice (n = 13, 8 male, genotype x hour F21,546 = 2.21, p) without significant differences in sheltering or feeding entries (p>0.1). (B) Time budgets for A.

Abstract Objective Genetic epilepsies in childhood are highly heterogeneous, and approaches to identify shared biological mechanisms across distinct genetic etiologies remain limited. We aimed to investigate whether genes associated with pediatric genetic epilepsies in our heterogeneous cohort converge on common functional pathways.

Genotype-phenotype associations in SCN1A-related epilepsies
Objective: Most mutations in SCN1A-related epilepsies are novel and when an infant presents with febrile seizures (FS) it is uncertain if they will have simple FS, FS+, or develop a severe epilepsy such as Dravet syndrome.

Movement Disorders in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies
Abstract Background Monogenic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) frequently feature co‐occurring movement disorders. Gene discovery has expanded epilepsy‐dyskinesia syndromes (EDS) from classic associations such as stereotypies in Rett syndrome to PRRT2‐related infantile seizures with paroxysmal dyskinesia and crouched gait in SCN1A ...

Abstract Background Childhood‐onset hyperkinetic movement disorders occur in a range of genetic conditions. Recently, there has been an increase in recognition of hyperkinetic movement disorders, mainly dystonia, chorea and dyskinesia, with monogenic conditions associated with neurodevelopmental delay (NDD) and also with developmental and epileptic ...

Genetic Etiologies of Dystonia with Anarthria/Aphonia
Abstract Background Dystonia with anarthria and/or aphonia (DAnAp) represents a distinctive phenotype manifesting across lifespan. Frequently associated with genetic disorders, early recognition is critical for diagnosis and management. Objectives To provide practical recommendations for the clinical evaluation of patients with DAnAp, enhancing ...

Not all SCN1A epileptic encephalopathies are Dravet syndrome
Objective:To define a distinct SCN1A developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with early onset, profound impairment, and movement disorder.Methods:A case series of 9 children were identified with a profound developmental and epileptic encephalopathy ...

Genetic testing in paediatric neurological disorders
In this study 390 paediatric patients with neurological disorders underwent genetic testing via exome sequencing, commercial panel, in‐house epilepsy, and movement disorder gene panels. Exome sequencing provides the highest diagnostic yield, and severe developmental delay and hypotonia predicted pathogenic variants in the exome sequencing cohort ...

The SCN1A gene variants and epileptic encephalopathies
The voltage-gated sodium channels are fundamental units that evoke the action potential in excitable cells such as neurons. These channels are integral membrane proteins typically consisting of one α-subunit, which forms the larger central pore of the ...

Dravet Syndrome: A Primer for Behavior Analysts
ABSTRACT Dravet syndrome (DS) is a rare and severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy that is characterized by prolonged seizures beginning in the first year of life, followed by debilitating and complex features, including sleep disturbances, feeding problems, social‐emotional difficulties, speech deficits, and cognitive and motor impairments.
