SCN1A-deficient excitatory neuronal networks display mutation-specific phenotypes [PDF]
Dravet syndrome is a severe epileptic encephalopathy, characterized by (febrile) seizures, behavioural problems and developmental delay. Eighty per cent of patients with Dravet syndrome have a mutation in SCN1A, encoding Nav1.1.

De novo mutations of SCN1A are responsible for arthrogryposis broadening the SCN1A-related phenotypes [PDF]
Background Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is the direct consequence of reduced fetal movements. AMC includes a large spectrum of diseases which result from variants in genes encoding components required for the formation or the function of the neuromuscular system.

Clinical spectrum of SCN1A mutations [PDF]
SummaryMutations in the NaV1.1 neuronal sodium channel alpha‐subunit (SCN1A) gene have been documented in a spectrum of epilepsy syndromes, ranging from the relatively benign generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) to severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy (SMEI), and rare cases of familial migraine.

Dravet syndrome (DRVT) is a rare form of neurodevelopmental disorder with a high risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), caused mainly (>80% cases) by mutations in the SCN1A gene, coding the Nav1.1 protein (alfa-subunit of voltage-sensitive ...

Dravet syndrome (Dravet) is a severe congenital developmental genetic epilepsy caused by de novo mutations in the SCN1A gene. Nonsense mutations are found in ∼20% of the patients, and the R613X mutation was identified in multiple patients.

Lack of SCN1A Mutations in Familial Febrile Seizures [PDF]
Summary: Purpose: Mutations in the voltage‐gated sodium channel subunit gene SCN1A have been associated with febrile seizures (FSs) in autosomal dominant generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) families and severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy.

A Mutation in the SCN1A Gene With a Peculiar Course: A Case Report [PDF]
In this report, we present the case of a one-year-old female patient with a history of febrile seizures, which was characterized by multiple seizures during hot baths and more than one episode of status epilepticus. Dravet syndrome was suspected due to the clinical context of the seizures and was confirmed by genetic testing. The brain MRI was found to

Mutations of the SCN1A gene in acute encephalopathy [PDF]
SummaryPurpose: Acute encephalopathy is the most serious complication of pediatric viral infections, such as influenza and exanthema subitum. It occurs worldwide, but is most prevalent in East Asia. Recently, there have been sporadic case reports of epilepsy/febrile seizure and acute encephalopathy with a neuronal sodium channel alpha 1 subunit (SCN1A)
