Grant Activity:
Investigating the molecular pathology for PCDH19-Girls Clustering Epilepsy
Purpose:
Changes in the PCDH19 gene are a relatively common cause of epilepsy. To better understand the basis of this disorder, we will use mouse models that mimic the genetic changes and symptoms of PCDH19-GCE. We will perform careful analysis of brain development in these models to determine the primary cause of this condition. We will also test whether gene therapy could be used to cure the disease. This study will define how brain changes lead to epilepsy and facilitate development of new treatments.
