The autism study was made possible by patients being treated for epilepsy who underwent surgery to have implanted depth electrodes in their brains to monitor seizure-related electrical activity.

The amygdala is a routine target for depth electrodes to localize epileptic seizures. This provides a unique opportunity to record activity from the amygdala a brain structure that is important for the processing of emotions

#Surgery proving effective with epilepsy patientsmelanie Vandyke can't wait to get her driver's license. I just want to get back out in the world she said.

For nearly 15 years Vandyke's world was restricted severely by epileptic seizures during which she couldn't control her speech

and the only one between Philadelphia and Atlanta to perform this type of laser surgery for epilepsy with a technology called Visualase.

and initially used to destroy tumors the Visualase system was employed first as a treatment for epilepsy in 2010 Wake Forest Baptist performed its first epilepsy-related laser procedure in June of last year

More than 2. 5 million Americans have epilepsy a disorder in which abnormal electrical impulses in the brain affect a variety of mental and physical functions.

But most people with epilepsy don't need surgery as seizures can be controlled by medication in approximately 60 percent of all patients.

or spasms that are associated commonly with epilepsy that wasn't the initial diagnosis. At first it was diagnosed as blackouts Vandyke said.

Subsequent tests indicated that Vandyke did have epilepsy. Despite seeing specialists at hospitals in three states and taking a variety of medications she continued to have seizures often twice a day.

In 2010--12 years after her first seizure--she was referred to Wake Forest Baptist's Comprehensive Epilepsy Center.

he was diagnosed with early-onset epileptic encephalopathy of unknown etiology. The patient had experienced treatment-resistant seizures since 3 months of age

Pierson added that many other genes have been associated with several forms of epilepsy in infancy but only few other instances of early-onset epileptic encephalopathy involved the GRIN2A gene.

The GRIN2A gene influences electrochemical events that affect the flow and strength of electrical impulses in the brain.

This medication was previously found to have anticonvulsant effects in animal models of epilepsy and has been used safely in children with autism said Hongjie Yuan MD Phd scientist in the Department of Pharmacology at the Emory University School of medicine.

Our results suggest that children with early-onset epileptic encephalopathy should undergo evaluation for similar gene variants with the possibility of using memantine

and NIH colleagues that provides a more thorough description of how the GRIN2A mutation results in epilepsy.
