Reduced GABAergic Neuron Excitability, Altered Synaptic Connectivity, and Seizures in a KCNT1 Gain-of-Function Mouse Model of Childhood Epilepsy

Gain-of-function (GOF) variants in K(+) channels cause severe childhood epilepsies, but there are no mechanisms to explain how increased K(+) currents lead to network hyperexcitability. Here, we introduce a human Na(+)-activated K(+) (K(Na)) channel variant (KCNT1-Y796H) into mice and, using a multi...
