Abstract excerpt
The altered function of the Hyperpolarization-activated Cyclic-Nucleotide-gated (HCN) ion channels plays an important role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy in humans. In particular, HCN1 missense mutations have been recently identified in patients with different epileptic phenotypes, varying from mild to severe. Their electrophysiological characterization shows that mutated channels can act both with...
