What does my genetic report mean?
We wrote a blog, but as I’ve had this conversation a few dozen times, my answer is simpler now. Is it missense or is it truncating? If missense, do more research, if truncating, it is in the first 4 exons (p. Address of 129 or lower).
Who else has it? Look on ClinVar and call SRF.

The intersection of biomarkers and repurposing: The latter could help us figure out which of the former to focus on which could be the difference between a drug making it.
Repurposing:
Friend message - “And I wanted to tell you about the worsening behavior with treatments: a friend of mine has a son with Dravet syndrome, and many years ago they started him on a drug that reduced the seizures quite a bit, and my friend used to say “with this new treatment cleaning his brain from all those EEG interferences, we are starting to see more of his personality… and we’ve realized that we don’t like him”. Very harsh but very real to say”

My vote (today) is that we have a disease that is a DEE called SYNGAP1 Related Disorders (SRD).
These monogenic disorders are anything but monolithic.
Disease vs. Syndrome, read this: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1480257/ (Cavalo, 2003)A syndrome is a recognizable complex of symptoms and physical findings which indicate a specific condition for which a direct cause is not necessarily understood...Once medical science identifies a causative agent or process with a fairly high degree of certainty, physicians may then refer to the process as a disease, not a syndrome.
NDD vs DEE - We are a DEE“Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) encompass highly prevalent conditions such as autism and epilepsy, with cognitive disabilities alone affecting 1-3% of the global population. Developmental epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) are NDD characterized by epilepsy and delayed development or loss of developmental skills. Although the prevalence of DEEs remains to be determined, studies estimate that single-gene epilepsies occur in around 1 in 2100 births annually.”https://medicalxpress.com/news/2022-12-neurodevelopmental-epilepsy-disorder-genetic.html

SYNGAP1 is complex, we need to partner with our clinicians to improve care & get ready for repurposing. #S10e131
Three patient stories… with the same conclusion, we don’t know enough about this disease.
- VNS, very few meds. If that is appealing, look for the VNS parents. www.facebook.com/groups/syngap1vns/
- Little lady on Kepra finally getting a new drug.
- Big man getting really odd care, based on EEG
These kids are so complicated and the system is just not ready. We can help by supporting the studies I mentioned in #S10e128
1 - NEW!!! GLOBAL - Every english speaking caregiver on earth: Rochester survey, 15 minutes, online. https://redcap.link/NDDCaregiverSurvey
2 - GLOBAL - Multiple Languages - #SRFunded - Every caregiver of a patient 17 years or older: Andrade Adult Surveys. [email protected]
3 - GLOBAL - #SRFunded. Every english speaking caregiver on earth: Tom Frazier, eye tracking study, at home, 20 minutes every 3 months for a year. [email protected]
4 - USA: https://ciitizen.com/syngap1/srf/ as always! This data is critical and being used by multiple partners. Sign up/refresh!
5 - USA, East of the mountains: [email protected] free natural history study! #S10e105 https://youtu.be/qy5YrPIlH0I?si=4sl_IaLCA7YA6WpM West of the mountains, we are setting up at Stanford and Colorado. Please get in there ASAP.
6 - Texas: QEEG at Cook Childrens. Email Corey.
All studies are on https://curesyngap1.org/studies/
REPURPOSING
Also, repurposing is coming fast. 4PB is going into kids in the US and doctors in the Netherlands, Poland and Turkey are paying attention. We have a hit from Chow that we are validating. Rarebase validation is coming soon… The question is how and what to measure. The other question is cost, stay tuned here.

EEGS MATTER
To get an EEG Biomarker, you need to collect EEGs. Not simple.
This eg from Angelman in 2021. (Syndrome defined in 1965, UBE3A in 1997)
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667174321000380
Check out this 2023 example for SCN2A (gene 1989, patient 2001) https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.10.24.23296360v1
SYNGAP1 (gene 1998 Huganir, patient 2009 Michaud)

EEGs (in .edf format) are much bigger than the rest of your medical records (pdf and images). Check out Tony’s
