Emerging genetic influences in benign epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes - BECTS.

Epilepsy research - 1 Sept 2012

Gkampeta Anastasia, Pavlou Evangelos

Abstract excerpt

BECTS is considered to be the most common childhood epileptic syndrome. Multifactorial inheritance is the most important model accounting for the genetic behavior of the common epilepsies. In recent years, different mutations in genes that control the excitability of neurons have been described. Recent reports on the involvement of the BDNF and ELP4 genes with possible roles in cell motility, migration, and...
