Identification of a Functional CYP2C8 Variant Allele that Alters Splicing, Reduces Protein Expression, and Increases Drug Exposure

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This study investigated genetic determinants of the pharmacokinetics of the CYP2C8 index drugs repaglinide and gemfibrozil, and their interaction in healthy participants. Sequencing data from a study with montelukast revealed a novel functional CYP2C8 allele (rs2071426, CYP2C8*19), predicted to create an intronic splice donor site.

UMOD Genotype and Clinical Outcomes in Heart Failure Patients Treated with Loop Diuretics: A UK Biobank Pharmacogenetic Cohort Study

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Uromodulin (UMOD) regulates tubular sodium handling and modulates NKCC2, the molecular target of loop diuretics (LD). Although UMOD variants have been associated with blood pressure and hypertension, their pharmacogenetic relevance in heart failure (HF) remains unknown.

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

Cenobamate use in super‐refractory status epilepticus: A report of three cases

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Super‐refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is a neurological emergency with high morbidity and mortality. Cenobamate, a novel antiseizure medication, may be helpful in managing SRSE, but evidence is limited. Methods This retrospective case series reports the use of cenobamate as add‐on therapy in the management of three cases of ...

Clinical utility and genetic landscape of exome sequencing in a large pediatric epilepsy cohort: Insights from a Turkish tertiary care center

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the diagnostic utility and genetic spectrum of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) in a large, well‐phenotyped cohort of Turkish pediatric patients with epilepsy of unknown etiology. Methods Between January 2021 and December 2024, 250 children (115 female, 135 male) with unexplained epilepsy underwent either whole‐exome ...

Facilitating the timely diagnosis of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome: A checklist to support clinical practice

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To develop and evaluate a simple‐to‐use checklist to support physicians with the timely diagnosis of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS). Methods A panel of 10 pediatric and adult epileptologists used the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria for LGS classification and definition to develop seven questions for the checklist,

Refining the electroclinical phenotype of 15q11.2 microdeletion: EEG biomarker overlap with Angelman syndrome

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract The 15q11.2 microdeletion is a chromosomal condition associated with a broad epileptic phenotype. It is differentiated from Angelman syndrome, which is typically a larger maternal deletion in an overlapping area. We describe a patient with a 15q11.2 microdeletion that has clinical and EEG biomarker features similar to those seen in Angelman ...

Efficacy of fenfluramine in a pediatric epilepsy patient with a pathogenic SV2A variant: A case report

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Pathogenic SV2A gene variants have been reported as causes of epilepsy and are often associated with drug resistance and susceptibility to fever‐related seizures. No highly effective treatments have been established for this condition. We report a female patient with a family history of epilepsy who developed generalized seizures associated ...

Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...
