NEUROBIOLOGY OF EPILEPSY GENES (EPITOR)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2016, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2021,

Ion channel genes have long been linked to Mendelian focal epilepsies, but my recent finding of frequent mutations in DEPDC5 opens completely new perspectives. DEPDC5 is an inhibitor of the mTORC1 (mammalian target of rapamycin) signaling pathway, the master regulator of cell proliferation and growth. Mutations of this gene are found in a wide spectrum of focal epilepsy syndromes, with or without ...
