DNM1 encephalopathy: A new disease of vesicle fission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
ObjectiveTo evaluate the phenotypic spectrum caused by mutations in dynamin 1 (DNM1), encoding the presynaptic protein DNM1, and to investigate possible genotype-phenotype correlations and predicted functional consequences based on structural modeling ...

Confirming the contribution and genetic spectrum of de novo mutation in infantile spasms: Evidence from a Chinese cohort

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
We determined the yield, genetic spectrum, and actual origin of de novo mutations (DNMs) for infantile spasms (ISs) in a Chinese cohort. The efficacy of levetiracetam (LEV) for STXBP1‐related ISs was explored also.

Infantile spasms (West syndrome): update and resources for pediatricians and providers to share with parents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background Infantile spasms (IS; West syndrome) is a severe form of encephalopathy that typically affects infants younger than 2 years old. Pediatricians, pediatric neurologists, and other pediatric health care providers are all potentially key early ...

The early electroclinical manifestations of infantile spasms: A video EEG study

open access: yesAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2016
Purpose: Infantile spasms are described as flexor extensor and mixed; but more features of their semiology and ictal electroencephalography (EEG) changes are sparse in the literature.

A team science approach to discover novel targets for infantile spasms (IS)

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, 2021
Infantile spasms (IS) is a devastating epilepsy syndrome that typically begins in the first year of life. Symptoms consist of stereotypical spasms, developmental delay, and electroencephalogram (EEG) that may demonstrate Hypsarhythmia.

Protein structure and phenotypic analysis of pathogenic and population missense variants in STXBP1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Syntaxin-binding protein 1, encoded by STXBP1, is highly expressed in the brain and involved in fusing synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane.

Limited efficacy of zonisamide in the treatment of refractory infantile spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, 2020
A series of relatively small studies collectively suggest that zonisamide may be effective in the treatment of infantile spasms. Using a large single‐center cohort of children with infantile spasms, we set out to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ...

Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome: A State of the Art Review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a severe age-dependent epileptic encephalopathy usually with onset between 1 and 8 years of age. Functional neuroimaging studies recently introduced the concept of Lennox-Gastaut as "secondary network epilepsy" resulting ...
