Abstract excerpt
Lafora's progressive myoclonus epilepsy (Lafora disease: LD) is caused by mutations in the EPM2A or NHLRC1 gene, but cellular mechanisms of the pathogenesis remain unclear. In an attempt to understand and elucidate the disease pathway, we have investigated the global gene expression profile in a mouse model for LD that developed a phenotype similar to that observed in human patients, including presence of Lafora...
