<scp><i>SCN3A</i></scp>‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder: A Spectrum of Epilepsy and Brain Malformation

Abstract

Our study defines SCN3A-related neurodevelopmental disorder along a spectrum of severity, but typically including epilepsy and severe or profound developmental delay/intellectual disability. Malformations of cortical development are a characteristic feature of this unusual channelopathy syndrome, present in >75% of affected individuals. Gain of function at the channel level in developing neurons is likely an important mechanism of disease pathogenesis. ANN NEUROL 2020;88:348-362.
