Possible increased channel availability suggested by delayed onset and faster recovery of slow inactivation (less direct).Rhodes TH.2005


[c.2948T>C] Clinical description

The first seizure of the male patient, 21-years-old, was presented with hemiclonic seizures at the age of three months. Thereafter the patient occurred other seizures including complex partial seizures at the age of 2 years, and  generalized tonic clonic seizures with daily after the age of one year. The patient had severe mental decline, ataxia and pyramidal sign. His maternal cousin had febrile convulsion. The CT scan was normal and the electroencephalogram analysis showed  multifocal spikes(Fujiwara T,et al. Brain. 2003 Mar;126(Pt 3):531-46. [12566275]).
