Pharmacological rescue of motor circuit dysfunction in a Drosophila model of paroxysmal dyskinesia

Abigail D. Wilson, Yuyao Jiang, Nidhika Desai, Nell Simon-Batsford, Angelina Sanderson, Isaac Tolley, Hao Gao, James E.C. Jepson

This study identifies acetylcholinesterase inhibitors as potential treatments for paroxysmal dyskinesia by rescuing motor defects in a Drosophila model with BK channel gain-of-function.

BK channel gain-of-function disrupts limb control by suppressing neurotransmission during a critical developmental window

Simon A. Lowe, Abigail D. Wilson, Gabriel Aughey, Animesh Banarjee, Talya Goble, Nell Simon-Batsford, Angelina Sanderson, Patrick Krätschmer, Maryam Balogun, Hao Gao, Sherry Shiying Aw, James E.C. Jepson

This study shows that gain-of-function BK channel mutations disrupt limb control in fruit flies by altering neuronal development during a critical period, not by affecting mature circuits.
