postnatal days 11 and 15, within the cortex and/or hippocampus
(Fig. 4B).
The percentage of mice showing electroclinical seizures reached
a peak at postnatal day 10, and then a second peak at postnatal
day 14 (Fig. 4F). Neither the frequency nor the duration of elec-
troclinical seizures changed appreciably with age. Seizure fre-
quency fluctuated with a mean frequency of 1.6 0.6 ictal
events per hour at postnatal day 14 (Fig. 4F). The mean duration
of seizures for animals over all recorded ages was 120 12 s
(Fig. 4G).

All homozygous LGI1

mice died prematurely, and Kaplan–Meier
curves revealed a mean lifetime of 16 days (n = 25; SD = 1.8).

and wild-type mice. (A) Epidural EEG recording in a postnatal day 10 LGI1
/
mouse showing the onset of an electroclinical seizure (upper trace corresponds to the right cortex and bottom trace to the left cortex).
Behavioural modifications were correlated with EEG changes: 1 = immobility; 2 = repeated clonies of the four limbs, agitation;
3 = myoclonic jerks of the trunk. In the lower panel, expanded EEG traces show low voltage fast activities (LVFA) following spikes,
and bursts of polyspikes (PS) with increasing duration. No EEG abnormality was seen in age-matched LGI1
+/
(B) or wild-type (C) mice.
(D) Epidural EEG recording in a postnatal day 10 LGI1
/
mouse. In the lower panel, expanded EEG traces show initial spikes discharge
with increasing amplitude, and then pseudo-periodic slow potentials with over-imposed polyspike activity. Note the asymmetry at the end
of the seizure.
