abstract = {De novo mutations in voltage- and ligand-gated channels
have been associated with an increasing number of cases of
developmental and epileptic encephalopathies, which often
fail to respond to classic antiseizure medications. Here, we
examine two knock-in mouse models replicating de novo
sequence variations in the HCN1 voltage-gated channel gene,
p.G391D and p.M153I (Hcn1G380D/+ and Hcn1M142I/+ in mouse),
associated with severe drug-resistant neonatal- and
childhood-onset epilepsy, respectively. Heterozygous mice
from both lines displayed spontaneous generalized
tonic-clonic seizures. Animals replicating the p.G391D
variant had an overall more severe phenotype, with
pronounced alterations in the levels and distribution of
HCN1 protein, including disrupted targeting to the axon
terminals of basket cell interneurons. In line with clinical
reports from patients with pathogenic HCN1 sequence
variations, administration of the antiepileptic Na+ channel
antagonists lamotrigine and phenytoin resulted in the
paradoxical induction of seizures in both mouse lines,
consistent with an effect to further impair inhibitory
neuron function. We also show that these variants can render
HCN1 channels unresponsive to classic antagonists,
indicating the need to screen mutated channels to identify
novel compounds with diverse mechanism of action. Our
results underscore the necessity of tailoring effective
therapies for specific channel gene variants, and how
strongly validated animal models may provide an invaluable
tool towards reaching this objective.},
