Disease-causing Slack potassium channel mutations produce opposite effects on excitability of excitatory and inhibitory neurons
Summary: The KCNT1 gene encodes the sodium-activated potassium channel Slack (KCNT1, KNa1.1), a regulator of neuronal excitability. Gain-of-function mutations in humans cause cortical network hyperexcitability, seizures, and severe intellectual disability. Using a mouse model expressing the Slack-R4...
