Evaluation of spontaneous seizure activity, sex-dependent differences, behavioral comorbidities, and alterations in CA1 neuron firing properties in a mouse model of Dravet Syndrome

Abstract: Dravet syndrome (DS) is a rare childhood epilepsy disorder resulting in spontaneous, recurrent seizures and behavioral co-morbidities. A successful drug screening model should recapitulate the phenotypes observed in a clinical setting. To facilitate the discovery and development of anti-seizure drugs for DS, the contract site of the NINDS Epilepsy Therapy Screening Program (ETSP) has continued to evaluate a mouse model of DS with a focus on evaluating behavioral phenotypes, spontaneous seizure activity, and se… Show more

“…A mutation such as the Scn1a A1783V/WT heterozygous (Het) knock-in mutation has been identified in human DS patients and recapitulates the human disease in mice [Ricobaraza, et al 2019]. Het mice experience febrile and spontaneous seizures and have a higher mortality rate than wild-type (WT) littermates [Pernici, et al 2021, Pernici, et al bioRxiv]. Death most frequently occurs during post-natal day 15 (P15) to P30 [Pernici, et al 2021].…”
