    Applications
    GRIK2, a gene encoding the kainate receptor subunit GluK2, has been implicated in various neurological disorders. A missense mutation in GRIK2 has been shown to increase dendritic excitability and synaptic integration, leading to altered neuronal function. Additionally, GRIK2 has been associated with the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease, with the neuroprotective effects of a traditional Chinese formulation mediated through GRIK2-related signaling pathways. In the context of epilepsy, GRIK2 has been identified as a potential target for gene therapy in drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy, as downregulating GRIK2 expression reduces seizure activity. Furthermore, interstitial 6q deletions involving GRIK2 have been associated with epilepsy and Prader-Willi-like phenotypes. These findings highlight the diverse applications of GRIK2 in understanding and treating neurological disorders.
