Pathophysiologie von nicht klassischen epileptischen Enzephalopathien (EE)
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
Our study was the first analysis of “non-classical” genetic DEEs combining clinical, genetic and pathophysiological studies. 140 clinically well-defined patient-parent trios were analysed and combined with large European and international cohorts. We were able to identify several novel causative genes for epileptic encephalopathies and some of the functional analysis are still ongoing. The detected genes comprise transporters (SLC6A1, SLC13A5, SLC2A1, SLC6A1, GRIN1), ion channels (SCN8A, KCNA2, KCNC2, KCNB1), metabolic pathways (TXNRD1, PMPCB, AIFM1, AIFM3, OGDHL), the RNA/DNA metabolism (KMT2E, JMJD1C) and brain development (RORB). The results are essential for further pathophysiological analysis with the aim to establish further precision medicine strategies for DEE patients.
