Project description:<p>The Epilepsy Genetics Initiative (EGI) was created in 2014 with the goal of amassing a database of clinically-generated exome sequence data for patients with epilepsy who have had diagnostic whole exome sequencing. Most of the subjects enrolled in the study did not receive a secure genetic diagnosis from their initial sequencing. Following participant/family consent, EGI transfers raw data from the respective clinical lab to the Institute for Genomic Medicine at Columbia University Medical Center. The strategy of the initiative has been to carry out systematic reanalysis of data to identify new diagnoses that were not possible or missed at the time of initial sequencing and to aid in novel gene discovery in epilepsy.</p>
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE27015: Rat model of MTLE: Animals with epilepsy vs animals without epilepsy (Agilent) GSE27166: Rat model of MTLE: Animals with epilepsy vs animals without epilepsy (codelink) Refer to individual Series
Project description:Pediatric epilepsy is a neurological condition that causes repeated and unprovoked seizures and is more common in 1–5-year-old children. Drug resistance has been indicated as a key challenge in improving the clinical outcomes of patients with pediatric epilepsy. In the present study, we aimed to identify serum small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived microRNAs (miRNAs) from the serum samples of children for predicting the prognosis in patients with epilepsy and drug-resistant epilepsy
