SLC6A1 and Generalized non-motor (absence) seizure: Interestingly, GAT-1 activity is not compromised in GAERS dentate gyrus granule cells (Cope et al., 2009), an area that does not participate in the generation of absence seizures (Danober et al., 1998) and where the distribution of this transporter is primarily neuronal (De Biasi et al., 1998).
