Frontal lobe epilepsy and mutations of the corticotropin‐releasing hormone gene

12 Oct 2005

Abstract excerpt

Nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy up to now has been considered a channelopathy caused by mutations in the alpha(4) and beta(2) subunits of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. However, these mutations account for only a minority of patients, and the existence of at least a new locus for the disease has been demonstrated. In one Italian nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy family, we identified two new...
