A novel mutation in the SCN9A gene associated with congenital insensitivity to pain, anhidrosis, and mild cognitive impairment

open access: yesPediatric Dermatology, 2023
AbstractCongenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) is a rare phenotype characterized by the inability to perceive pain stimuli with subsequent self‐injuries, whereas CIP associated with anhidrosis (CIPA) is an overlapping phenotype mainly characterized by insensitivity to noxious stimuli and anhidrosis.

Congenital Insensitivity to Pain: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCase Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2014
Congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the SCN9A gene. We report a patient with the clinical features consistent with CIP in whom we detected a novel homozygous G2755T mutation in exon ...

Analgesia linked to Nav1.7 loss of function requires µ- and δ-opioid receptors [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2018
Background: Functional deletion of the Scn9a (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9) gene encoding sodium channel Nav1.7 makes humans and mice pain-free. Opioid signalling contributes to this analgesic state.

Long-term course of early onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy associated with 2q24.3 microduplication

open access: yesEpilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2022
Copy number variations (CNVs) have been related to developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE). The 2q24.3 region includes a cluster of genes for voltage-gated sodium channels (SCN) and CNVs in this region cause DEE. However, the long-term course of

The Peptide Network between Tetanus Toxin and Human Proteins Associated with Epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Sequence matching analyses show that Clostridium tetani neurotoxin shares numerous pentapeptides (68, including multiple occurrences) with 42 human proteins that, when altered, have been associated with epilepsy.

Genetic complexity in pediatric onset epilepsy‐movement disorder syndromes: Insights from a cohort of 97 subjects

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 299-314, January 2026.
Abstract Objective Conditions presenting with both epilepsy and movement disorders (EPIMDs) range from relatively benign cases to severe developmental encephalopathies. However, the full clinical and genetic spectrum still needs to be better defined.

Common Missense Variant of SCN9A Gene Is Associated with Pain Intensity in Patients with Chronic Pain from Disc Herniation [PDF]

open access: yesPain Medicine, 2017
Lumbar intervertebral disk herniation (LDH) is considered one of the major risk factors for lower back pain, mainly caused by irritation of a spinal nerve or its root. One of the genes related to pain perception is SCN9A, which encodes the voltage gated sodium channel NaV1.7, a key molecule involved in peripheral pain processing.

Development and External Validation of a Genetic Risk Score for Pain in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Volume 77, Issue 12, Page 1409-1417, December 2025.
Objective Several single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with chronic pain syndromes. Our objective was to determine whether genetic variants are associated with pain and disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Participants were included from two independent RA cohorts: FORWARD (National Databank for Rheumatic ...
