A Gain-of-Function Mutation in Nav1.6 in a Case of Trigeminal Neuralgia
Abstract Idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a debilitating pain disorder characterized by episodic unilateral facial pain along the territory of branches of the trigeminal nerve. Human pain disorders, but not TN, have been linked to gain-of-function mutations in peripheral voltage-gated sodium...
