Eine schon länger bekannte Form der frühkindlichen epileptischen Enzephalopathie ist das Dravet-Syndrom.
Es tritt bei etwa einem von 30.000 Kindern auf und wird durch Mutationen am Natriumkanal-Gen SCN1A ausgelöst.
Bei vielen Kindern, deren Krankheit dem Dravet-Syndrom ähnelt, liegen jedoch keine Mutationen in SCNA1 vor.
www.uni-wuerzburg.deAnother form of early infantile epileptic encephalopathy, which has been known for some time, is the Dravet syndrome.
It occurs in about one child out of 30,000 and is caused by mutations of the sodium channel gene SCN1A.
However, many children suffering from a disorder resembling the Dravet syndrome have no mutations of SCNA1, so there must be other genes responsible for this early infantile type of epilepsy.
