Conventional and novel anti-seizure medications reveal a particular role for GABAA in a North Sea progressive myoclonus Epilepsy Drosophila model
Objective: North Sea Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy (NS-PME) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by ataxia, myoclonus and seizures with a progressive course. Although the cause of NS-PME is known, namely a homozygous mutation in the GOSR2 gene (c.430 G>T; p. Gly144Trp), sufficient treatment is lacking. Despite combinations of on average 3–5 anti-seizure medications (ASMs), debilitating myoclo
