Transcriptomic and morphologic vascular aberrations underlying FCDIIb etiology
8 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Focal cortical dysplasia type II (FCDII) is a major cause of drug-resistant epilepsy, but genetic factors explain only some cases, suggesting other mechanisms. In this study, we conduct a molecular analysis of brain lesions and adjacent areas in FCDIIb patients. By analyzing over 217,506 single-nucleus transcriptional profiles from 15 individuals, we find significant changes in smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and...
