Case Report: Targeted treatment by fluoxetine/norfluoxetine of a KCNC2 variant causing developmental and epileptic encephalopathy by Ping Li, Alice Butler, Yu Zhou, Karl L. Magleby, Christina A. Gurnett, Lawrence Salkoff

“…The Kv3.2 subfamily of voltage activated potassium channels encoded by the KCNC2 gene is abundantly expressed in neurons that fire trains of fast action potentials that are a major source of cortical inhibition. Gain-of-function (GOF) de novo pathogenic variants in KCNC1 and KCNC2, encoding Kv3.1 and Kv3.2 respectively, cause several types of epilepsy including developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE). …”

Reactive Oxygen Species in Asthma: Regulators of Macrophage Polarization and Therapeutic Implications: A Narrative Review by Liu Y, Zhang M, Wang T, Zhang J

“…ARG1 rich M2 cells convert L-arginine into proline, fostering collagen deposition; Ym1/2, Fizz1 and CD206 correlate with airway remodeling and declining lung function. Emerging antioxidant and macrophage-polarization strategies that selectively modulate ROS show promise in rebalancing M1/M2 responses and attenuating airway hyper-responsiveness. …”
