Autosomal dominant lateral temporal epilepsy (ADLTE) is an inherited syndrome caused by mutations in the leucine-rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) gene. In a family with six ADLTE patients spanning four generations, our linkage and exome sequencing investigations revealed a rare frameshift heterozygous mutation inLGI1(c.1494del(p.Phe498LeufsTer15)). Gene cloning methods were used to create plasmids with wild-type and mutantLGI1alleles. Through transfection of HEK293 cells and primary neurons, they were utilized to assess the subcellular location of wild-type and mutant LGI1. Moreover, the plasmid-transfected primary neurons were analyzed for neuronal complexity and density of dendritic spines. According to our results. the mutation decreased LGI1 secretion in transfected HEK293 cells. In primary neurons, mutantLGI1affected neuronal polarity and complexity. Our findings have broadened the phenotypic spectrum ofLGI1mutations and provided evidence regarding the pathogenicity of this mutation. In addition, we discovered new information about the role ofLGI1in the development of temporal lobe epilepsy, along with a possible link between neuronal polarity disorder and ADLTE.
