Abstract excerpt
Neuronal function requires fine-tuned and coordinated activity of several ion channels and transporters. One member of this ensemble is the KCC2 potassium-chloride cotransporter. Because KCC2 expression is required for GABA-dependent inhibitory synaptic transmission, mutations in the gene encoding KCC2 (SLC12A5) have been linked to several diseases that also arise from defects in GABA signaling, including...
