Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.

Uncovering hidden genetic variations: long-read sequencing reveals new insights into tuberous sclerosis complex

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
BackgroundTuberous sclerosis is a multi-system disorder caused by mutations in either TSC1 or TSC2. The majority of affected patients (85%–90%) have heterozygous variants, and a smaller number (around 5%) have mosaic variants.

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 ...

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Establishment of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from a patient harboring a TSC1 gene mutation

open access: yesStem Cell Research
The tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (TSC1) gene encodes for the growth inhibitory protein, hamartin, and has been clinically implicated in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and associated epilepsy.

Synaptic Wnt/GSK3β Signaling Hub in Autism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Indexación: ScopusHundreds of genes have been associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and the interaction of weak and de novo variants derive from distinct autistic phenotypes thus making up the "spectrum." The convergence of these variants in ...

Novel planning pipeline utilizing the Surgical Theater system for pediatric epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Advances in the analysis and collation of radiographic datasets have enhanced presurgical planning for various neurosurgical procedures, including clipping of cerebral aneurysms, surgical resection of tumors, and arteriovenous malformation management.

Identifying Determinants for Neurobehavioral Morbidity in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a multisystem disorder characterized by the growth of hamartomas in multiple organ systems. The syndrome was described as early as 1835 by Rayer, and later by von Recklinghousen.
