Genetic Classification of Infantile Spasms
Researchers from University of Washington, Seattle, WA, and Washington University, St Louis, MO propose a genetic and biologic classification of infantile spasms. Infantile spasms are of 2 main groups: those with known or unknown predisposing genotypes.

Treatment of Symptomatic Infantile Spasms
Investigators at Tokyo Women's Medical University studied the clinical, radiological, and EEG characteristics of 69 patients with infantile spasms (IS) followed for 3-74 months (mean 18 months) after initial cessation of epileptic spasms (ES).

Pathophysiology of Infantile Spasms
An age-specific endogenous-convulsant hypothesis implicating corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), an excitant neuropeptide suppressed by ACTH/steroids, is proposed for the pathophysiology of massive infantile spasms in a report from the University of ...

Seizure Outcome in Infantile Spasms
Researchers at Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, and Lingfield Centre for Epilepsy, Surrey, UK, studied retrospectively the seizure outcome of 75 children treated over an 8-year period for infantile spasms (IS) with prednisolone or vigabatrin.

Abstract Dynamin 1 is a GTPase protein involved in synaptic vesicle fission, which facilitates the exocytosis of neurotransmitters necessary for normal signaling. Pathogenic variants in the DNM1 gene are associated with intractable epilepsy, often manifested as infantile spasms at onset, developmental delay, and a movement disorder, and are located in ...
