Association analysis of SCN9A gene variants with borderline personality disorder

Journal of Psychiatric Research, 2008
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a serious psychiatric disorder affecting about 1-2% of the general population. Key features of BPD are emotional instability, strong impulsivity, repeated self-injurious behavior (SIB) and dissociation. In the etiology of BPD and its predominant symptoms, genetic factors have been suggested.

A sodium channel gene SCN9A polymorphism that increases nociceptor excitability

Annals of Neurology, 2009
AbstractSodium channel NaV1.7, encoded by the SCN9A gene, is preferentially expressed in nociceptive primary sensory neurons, where it amplifies small depolarizations. In studies on a family with inherited erythromelalgia associated with NaV1.7 gain‐of‐function mutation A863P, we identified a nonsynonymous single‐nucleotide polymorphism within SCN9A in

Severe case and literature review of primary erythromelalgia: Novel SCN9A gene mutation

Vascular Medicine, 2011
Erythromelalgia is a rare clinical syndrome characterized by intermittent heat, redness, swelling and pain more commonly affecting the lower extremities. Symptoms are mostly aggravated by warmth and are eased by a cold temperature. In some cases, symptoms can be very severe and disabling.

Identification and characterization of the promoter region of the Nav1.7 voltage-gated sodium channel gene (SCN9A)

Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience, 2008
The Nav1.7 sodium channel plays an important role in pain and is also upregulated in prostate cancer. To investigate the mechanisms regulating physiological and pathophysiological Nav1.7 expression we identified the core promoter of this gene (SCN9A) in the human genome.

Variable epilepsy phenotypes associated with heterozygous mutation in the SCN9A gene: report of two cases

Neurological Sciences, 2018
Up to now, SCN9A mutations encoding Nav1.7 have been limited to inherited pain syndromes. A few of pathogenic SCN9A mutations with or without SCN1A mutations have been identified in epileptic patients. Here, we report two heterozygous SCN9A mutations with no SCN1A mutations, which are associated with variable epilepsy phenotypes and explored the ...

Chronic non-paroxysmal neuropathic pain — Novel phenotype of mutation in the sodium channel SCN9A gene

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2011
Gain-of-function mutations in the SCN9A gene (encoding to NaV1.7 voltage-gated sodium channel) cause two rare paroxysmal pain disorders: inherited erythromelalgia (IEM) and paroxysmal extreme pain disorder (PEDP). These phenotypes are characterized by episodic extreme localized pain with cutaneous autonomic signs.

Mutations in the sodium channel genes SCN1A, SCN3A, and SCN9A in children with epilepsy with febrile seizures plus(EFS+)

Seizure, 2021
To explore disease-causing gene mutations of epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (EFS+) in Southern Chinese Han population.Blood samples and clinical data were collected from 49 Southern Han Chinese patients with EFS+. Gene screening was performed using whole-exome sequencing and panel sequencing for 485 epilepsy-related genes.
