Abstract
The Leucine-rich Glioma Inactivated-1 ( LGI1) gene is supposed to be a tumor suppressor gene involved in glial tumors. Mutations in this gene were recently found to cause autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy (ADLTE). We have now analysed the comorbidity in a large Norwegian ADLTE family. No evidence was found that LGI1 is a high-penetrance tumor suppressor gene associated with a serious risk for malignancies in ADLTE families.
