Abstract excerpt
Absence seizures are classified into typical and atypical absences according to clinical and EEG characteristics. Although missense mutations in the GABA(A) receptor gamma2 subunits (GABRG2) gene have recently been detected in two families with typical absence seizures, no study has been carried out to clarify the relationship between atypical absence and GABA(A) receptors. We performed mutation analysis of all...
