LGI1 downregulation increases neuronal circuit excitability
2019-12-18
Abstract excerpt
LGI1 (Leucine-Rich Glioma-Inactivated 1) is a secreted trans-synaptic protein that interacts presynaptically with Kv1.1 potassium channels and ADAM23, and postsynaptically, influencing AMPA receptors through a direct link with the ADAM22 cell adhesion protein. Haploinsufficiency of LGI1 or autoantibodies directed against LGI1 are associated with human epilepsy, generating the hypothesis that a subacute reduction o...
