Protocol for quantifying pyramidal neuron hyperexcitability in a mouse model of neurodevelopmental encephalopathy

Summary: Here, we present a protocol for quantifying pyramidal neuron hyperexcitability in a mouse model of STXBP1 neurodevelopmental encephalopathy (Stxbp1hap). We describe steps for preparing brain slices, positioning electrodes, and performing an excitability test to investigate microcircuit fail...
