How should etiology change the classification of the epilepsies? Report from the ILAE 2021–2025 Terminology Commission

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The classification of the epilepsies has traditionally relied on clinical and electroencephalographic features. However, advancements in molecular genetics, neuroimaging, and our understanding of epilepsy pathophysiology necessitate a shift toward an etiology‐based approach.

Functional profiling of STXBP1 missense variants using a novel dual‐readout fluorometric assay

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective STXBP1‐related disorders (STXBP1‐RD) are among the most common genetic neurodevelopmental disorders, marked by early onset epilepsy, global developmental delay, and motor impairments. Many missense variants remain uncharacterized, limiting accurate variant interpretation and hindering development of precision therapies.

Kv3.1 activation suppresses provoked and spontaneous seizures in a mouse Dravet syndrome model

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective γ‐Aminobutyric acidergic (GABAergic) parvalbumin‐positive (PV+) interneurons are critical for maintaining cortical inhibitory tone, with their dysfunction predictably leading to epilepsy. Rapid PV+ interneuron firing is essential for their normal function and is maintained in part by potassium voltage‐gated channels.
