OMIA group 2194

Ataxia, spinocerebellar, SCN8A-related

The chain reaches the human disease developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 13, which Mondo defines as: “Any early infantile epileptic encephalopathy in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the SCN8A gene.” It reaches 3 more human diseases, listed below.

The chain

From the animal disease to the drugs. The page shows what each step found and where the chain stopped. It does not say whether the animal is a model of a human disease.

  1. Animal disease

    Reached

    OMIA records it in 1 species entry marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    4 Mondo diseases.

  3. Human gene

    Reached

    1 human gene.

  4. Target evidence

    Reached

    3 Open Targets associations, with a best score of 0.84.

  5. Drugs

    Reached

    53 ChEMBL drugs, 44 approved. None has been tested for this disease.

Natural-model score

How complete and how well supported the chain to each human disease is, out of 100, by stated rules. It does not say that the animal is a validated model of the human disease. How the score works.

Species

The chain follows only the species entries that OMIA marks as a defect.

Species Scientific name OMIA entry A defect
dog Canis lupus familiaris OMIA:002194-9615 Yes

Genes

Each gene OMIA records for a species entry, and the human gene it reaches through Ensembl's orthologs.

Species Animal gene Human gene Ortholog
dog SCN8A sodium channel, voltage gated, type VIII alpha subunit NCBI Gene 477604 SCN8A Ensembl one to one

Human diseases

Two routes lead from an OMIA group to a Mondo human disease: OMIA's own Mondo link, and the group's OMIM numbers through Mondo's cross-references.

Mondo disease Name Found by
MONDO:0013680 cognitive impairment with or without cerebellar ataxia OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0013801 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 13 Any early infantile epileptic encephalopathy in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the SCN8A gene. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0100092 myoclonus, familial, 2 Familial cortical myoclonus caused by heterozygous mutation in the SCN8A gene on chromosome 12q13. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0014903 seizures, benign familial infantile, 5 Any benign familial infantile epilepsy in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the SCN8A gene. OMIA's OMIM numbers

Target evidence

Each Open Targets association between one of the group's human genes and one of its human diseases, with its overall score and the score for each kind of evidence.
