GRIN2B encephalopathy: Novel findings on phenotype, variant clustering, functional consequences and treatment aspects

Konrad Platzer, +81 more
TL;DR: Evidence is found that GRIN2B encephalopathy is also frequently associated with movement disorder, cortical visual impairment and MCD revealing novel phenotypic consequences of channelopathies, and an objectifiable beneficial treatment response in the respective patients still remains to be demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired eIF5A function causes a Mendelian disorder that is partially rescued in model systems by spermidine.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of EIF5A in human development and disease, demonstrate the mechanistic complexity of the Mendelian disorder and raise possibilities for its treatment eIF5a is critical for protein synthesis but has not yet been associated with congenital human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Localization of the giant axonal neuropathy gene to chromosome 16q24

TL;DR: Determination of this locus is the first step toward characterizing the gene responsible for a fundamental property of intermediate filament organization and may shed light on other disorders in which neurofilament pathology is prominent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruptive variants of CSDE1 associate with autism and interfere with neuronal development and synaptic transmission

Hui Guo, +82 more
- 25 Sep 2019 - 
TL;DR: A new autism-related syndrome is defined and the functional role of CSDE1 in synapse development and synaptic transmission is highlighted, which is linked to overgrowth of neurites and abnormal dendritic spine morphology/synapse formation and impaired synaptic transmission.
