Depressed Glutamate Transporter 1 Expression in a Mouse Model of Dravet Syndrome.
Annals of clinical and translational neurology(2023)
摘要
Dravet syndrome (DS) is a monogenic, often refractory, epilepsy resultant from SCN1A haploinsufficiency in humans. A novel therapeutic target in DS that can be engaged in isolation or as adjunctive therapy is highly desirable. Here, we demonstrate reduced expression of the rodent glutamate transporter type 1 (GLT-1) in a DS mouse model, and in wild type mouse strains where Scn1a haploinsufficiency is most likely to cause epilepsy, indicating that GLT-1 depression may play a role in DS seizures. As GLT-1 can be upregulated by common and safe FDA-approved medications, this strategy may be an attractive, viable, and novel avenue for DS treatment.
