Heat-induced seizures, premature mortality, and hyperactivity in a novel <i>Scn1a</i> nonsense model for Dravet syndrome
2023-02-02
Abstract excerpt
Dravet syndrome (Dravet) is a severe congenital developmental genetic epilepsy caused by de novo mutations in the SCN1A gene. Nonsense mutations are found in ~20% of the patients, and the R613X mutation was identified in multiple patients. Here we characterized the epileptic and non-epileptic comorbidities of a novel preclinical Dravet mouse model harboring this nonsense Scn1a mutation. Heterozygous Scn1a R613...
