The Broad Clinical Spectrum of Epilepsies Associated With Protocadherin 19 Gene Mutation

Giovanni Battista Dell'Isola et al.

Summary: The phenotypic expression of PCDH19 gene mutation associated with epilepsy varies greatly, including both epileptic and non-epileptic symptoms, with a predominant effect on females.

ColabFold: making protein folding accessible to all

Milot Mirdita et al.

Summary: ColabFold combines fast homology search and optimized model utilization to offer accelerated prediction of protein structures and complexes, with a processing speed that is 40-60 times faster. It serves as a free and accessible platform for protein folding, capable of predicting close to 1,000 structures per day.

Mosaic and non-mosaic protocadherin 19 mutation leads to neuronal hyperexcitability in zebrafish

Barbara K. Robens et al.

Summary: Epilepsy, a common neurological disorder, has been found to be associated with the PCDH19 gene. Using zebrafish as a model, researchers discovered that loss of PCDH19 function leads to hyperexcitability and reduced numbers of inhibitory interneurons, challenging the prevailing theory and suggesting interneuron-mediated mechanisms.

Understanding Protein Protocadherin-19 (PCDH19) Syndrome: A Literature Review of the Pathophysiology

Juan A. Moncayo et al.

Summary: PCDH19 syndrome is a monogenic epilepsy caused by abnormalities in the PCDH19 gene. The pathophysiology involves dysregulation of GABA A receptors, dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier, cellular interference, and deficiency of AKR1C1-3 gene products. These mechanisms contribute to the development of refractory epilepsy.

A rat model of a focal mosaic expression of PCDH19 replicates human brain developmental abnormalities and behaviours

Andrzej W. Cwetsch et al.

Summary: Protocadherin 19 clustering epilepsy is a type of infantile-onset epilepsy syndrome that affects psychiatric, sensory, and cognitive functions. Due to random X-chromosome inactivation, females with this syndrome have both healthy and mutant cells. However, current mouse models fail to fully replicate the brain and behavioral deficits seen in humans with this disorder.

X-chromosome inactivation and PCDH19-associated epileptic encephalopathy: A novel PCDH19 variant in a Chinese family

Ling-Yin Hung et al.

Summary: PCDH19-related seizure disorder shows incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity. X-chromosome inactivation may play a role in phenotypic variability and patient outcomes. Liberal referral for PCDH19 testing among female patients with early-onset seizures is suggested to enhance case detection.

Comparative characterization of PCDH19 missense and truncating variants in PCDH19-related epilepsy

Mami Shibata et al.

Summary: This study investigated the distributional characteristics and clinical implications of missense and truncating variants in PCDH19-related epilepsy. Missense variants were found to be uniformly distributed throughout the EC domain, while truncating variants showed two distinct distributions. Patients with truncating variants located in specific domains exhibited later onset seizures and milder intellectual disability compared to patients with other variants.

Disrupted Excitatory Synaptic Contacts and Altered Neuronal Network Activity Underpins the Neurological Phenotype in PCDH19-Clustering Epilepsy (PCDH19-CE)

Stefka Mincheva-Tasheva et al.

Summary: PCDH19-Clustering Epilepsy (PCDH19-CE) is an infantile onset disorder caused by mutation of the X-linked PCDH19 gene. Interestingly, heterozygous females are affected while hemizygous males are not. The study shows that mosaic expression of PCDH19 disrupts physiological neurite communication leading to abnormal neuronal activity, a hallmark of PCDH19-CE.

Female-specific synaptic dysfunction and cognitive impairment in a mouse model of PCDH19 disorder

Naosuke Hoshina et al.

Summary: Mutations in the PCDH19 gene can lead to early-onset seizures and cognitive impairment, affecting heterozygous females but not hemizygous males. Research has shown that PCDH19 is enriched at hippocampal mossy fiber synapses, and heterozygous female mice display impaired synaptic structure and function in this area.

Summary: The Cadherin superfamily plays a critical role in differential adhesion during neurodevelopment, with mutations in PCDH19 linked to a unique form of epilepsy. This study presents the structure of zebrafish Pcdh19 and identifies potential interaction surfaces that could modify its adhesive strength and specificity.
