This latter result suggests two genotype-tailored pharmacological strategies to specifically counteract the dysfunction of KCNT1 activating mutations in MMPSI patients.
We used the canine MPSI model system to address the efficacy of a new retroviral vector, MND-MFG, containing the human alpha-ID cDNA (MND-MFG-alpha-ID) for direct in utero gene delivery to MPSI cells.
The HIRMAb domain binds the endogenous insulin receptor on the human BBB to trigger receptor-mediated transport across the BBB, and acts as a molecular Trojan horse to ferry the fused IDUA into the brain of patients with MPSI.
The work suggests that treatment of MPSI with the HIRMAb-IDUA fusion protein will be as effective as IDUA in peripheral organs, but offer the benefit of treatment of the central nervous system in MPSI.
The mutational analysis of potassium (KCNQ2, KCNQ3), sodium (SCN1A, SCN2A), and chloride (CLCN2) ion channels was performed in three children with typical features of the recently described syndrome of migrating partial seizures in infancy.
We provide novel insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying MMPEI and further implicate PLCB1 as a candidate gene for severe childhood epilepsies.

KCNT1 mutations have been found in epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures (EIMFS; also known as migrating partial seizures in infancy), autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy, and other types of early onset epileptic encephalopathies (EOEEs).
