Epilepsy-Associated SCN2A-L1342P Mutation Drives Network Hyperexcitability and Widespread Transcriptomic Changes in Human Cortical Organoids.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: Methods: Using a human male iPSC reference line (KOLF) carrying the Nav1.2-L1342P mutation, we generated 3D cortical organoids for functional studies. Patch clamp and multi-electrode array (MEA) recordings, immunocytochemistry, and RNA sequencing were used to characterize the disease phenotypes. Results: Nav1.2-L1342P organoid neurons displayed increased intrinsic excitability, and amplified excitatory post-synaptic currents, which are consistent with an increase in excitatory synapse formation revealed by PSD95/SYN1 immunostaining. Moreover, elevated network firing activity, as demonstrated by MEA, indicates a pronounced network hyperexcitability. Transcriptomic profiling of organoids carrying the Nav1.2-L1342P mutation further revealed significant alterations in synaptic, glutamatergic, and developmental pathways. Significance: Our findings demonstrate that the Nav1.2-L1342P mutation drives a multifaceted disease phenotype, including network hyperexcitability and disruption of pathways related to neuronal and synaptic functions. These results advance our understanding of SCN2A-related Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy (DEE), laying a foundation for personalized interventions. Key Points:
