Fine Mapping of a Dravet Syndrome Modifier Locus on Mouse Chromosome 5 and Candidate Gene Analysis by RNA-Seq. [PDF]
A substantial number of mutations have been identified in voltage-gated sodium channel genes that result in various forms of human epilepsy. SCN1A mutations result in a spectrum of severity ranging from mild febrile seizures to Dravet syndrome, an infant-

A case of SUDEP in a patient with Dravet syndrome with SCN1A mutation [PDF]
SummaryA boy with a clinical history of pharmacologically resistant Dravet syndrome died suddenly after falling asleep. The autopsy concluded that the cause of death was sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Postmortem molecular analysis of the SCN1A gene by multiplex ligation‐dependent probe amplification (MLPA), high‐resolution melting curve ...

Mutations in the neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel genes SCN1A and SCN2A are associated with inherited epilepsies, including genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) and Dravet syndrome (severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy).

A role of SCN9A in human epilepsies, as a cause of febrile seizures and as a potential modifier of Dravet syndrome. [PDF]
A follow-up study of a large Utah family with significant linkage to chromosome 2q24 led us to identify a new febrile seizure (FS) gene, SCN9A encoding Na(v)1.7.

SCN1A mutational analysis in Korean patients with Dravet syndrome [PDF]
The aim of this study was to characterize the SCN1A mutation spectrum in Korean patients with Dravet syndrome.Twenty-nine patients diagnosed with Dravet syndrome at the Seoul National University Children's Hospital were included in the study. Direct sequencing and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) were used to identify SCN1A ...

Expanding spectrum of SCN1A-related phenotype with novel mutations [PDF]
Mutations in the genes encoding voltage-gated sodium channels cause a variety of epilepsy syndromes, with most of the mutations occurring in SCN1A gene. It is one of the most well-researched epilepsy genes. The SCN1A gene, which seems to be a relevant regulator of excitability of the CNS, is implicated in various epilepsy phenotypes through ...
