Investigating the Patterns in SCN8A Mutations Linked to Early-Onset Seizures

Voltage-gated sodium ion channels play a vital role in neuron function, which becomes evident when variants in these genes disrupt their function. Mutations in SCN8A have only recently been linked to an epilepsy phenotype characterized by early-onset of seizures, delayed development, and intellectua...
