VIP interneuron impairment promotes in vivo circuit dysfunction and autism-related behaviors in Dravet syndrome

Summary: Dravet syndrome (DS) is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder caused by loss-of-function variants in SCN1A, which encodes the voltage-gated sodium channel subunit Nav1.1. We recently showed that neocortical vasoactive intestinal peptide interneurons (VIP-INs) express Nav1.1 and are hypoexcit...
