Abstract excerpt
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are neurodevelopmental diseases characterized by refractory epilepsy, distinct electroencephalographic and neuroradiological features, and various degrees of developmental delay. Mutations in KCNQ2, KCNQ3, and, more rarely, KCNQ5 genes encoding voltage-gated potassium channel subunits variably contributing to excitability control of specific neuronal populations...
