The clinical spectrum of Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood (AHC) is wide and characterized by the association of permanent and paroxysmal (palsy, dystonia, ocular, epileptic, dysautonomic events) neurological events, with onset in childhood. Most of AHC patients carry mutations in the ATP1A3 gene. This gene encodes the Na+/K+ ATPase witch is a transmembrane ion pump generating chemical and electrical gradient of sodium and potassium across the plasma membrane. Those paroxystic events in AHC patients with mutations in the ATP1A3 gene could be associated with a glucidic/energetic metabolism or intracerebral excitability disorder.
