Feverish prospects for seizure genetics.

Nature genetics - 1 Dec 2014

Sisodiya Sanjay

Abstract excerpt

Febrile seizures can arise in response to fevers induced by viral infection or as an adverse reaction to live-virus vaccines such as measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccination. A new study has now identified common genetic variants influencing susceptibility to febrile seizures, including two loci specifically associated with MMR-related events.
