Abstract excerpt
SCN2A gene-related early-infantile developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (EI-DEE) is a rare and severe disorder that manifests in early infancy. SCN2A mutations affecting the fast inactivation gating mechanism can result in altered voltage dependence and incomplete inactivation of the encoded neuronal Nav1.2 channel and lead to abnormal neuronal excitability. In this study, we evaluated clinical data of...
