The transcriptomic signature of DEPDC5 KO induced mTOR hyperactivation in human neurons and its response to rapamycin treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Mutations of the DEP Domain Containing 5 gene (DEPDC5), a mechanistic Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor involved in amino acid sensing, are associated with neurological diseases such as epilepsy and/or autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Loss of DEPDC5 impacts early neuronal development via mTOR hyperactivity.

Distinct spike‐and‐wave EEG profiles reveal susceptibility to fleeting/almost loss of consciousness (so‐called blips) in generalized epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To characterize electroencephalographic (EEG) profiles of short spike‐and‐wave bursts (SWBs) in patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy reporting sensations of fleeting/almost loss of consciousness, described as “a blip on the screen”—a phenomenon first termed “blips” by J.W. Lance.

Familial adult myoclonus epilepsy: A comprehensive diagnostic strategy for clinical practice

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Familial adult myoclonus epilepsy (FAME) is a genetic neurological disorder characterized by cortical myoclonus and epileptic seizures with clinical features that overlap with other movement disorders and epileptic syndromes, particularly essential tremor (ET), progressive myoclonic epilepsy (PME), and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME).

Drug discovery and preclinical testing of drug candidates for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Drug development for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) follows different strategies on one hand including disease‐targeting precision medicine approaches considering the genetic variants and pathomechanisms in DEEs and on the other hand including therapeutic approaches with novel targets or second‐generation drug candidates ...

Absence seizures and sleep–wake abnormalities in a rat model of GRIN2B neurodevelopmental disorder

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic mutations in GRIN2B are an important cause of severe neurodevelopmental disorders resulting in epilepsy, autism, and intellectual disability. GRIN2B encodes the GluN2B subunit of N‐methyl‐d‐aspartate receptors (NMDARs), which are ionotropic glutamate receptors critical for normal development of the nervous system and ...

Deciphering SCN2A: A comprehensive review of rodent models of Scn2a dysfunction

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract SCN2A encodes for the alpha subunit of the voltage‐gated sodium channel NaV1.2, which is involved in action potential initiation and backpropagation in excitatory neurons. Currently, it is one of the highest monogenetic risk factors for both epilepsy and autism spectrum disorder.
