constitutional       loss of function
loss of ADARB1 activity causes AMPA receptor-mediated death of motor neurons
tumoral     --low  
in astrocytoma, decrease in ADARB1 editing activity that seems to correlate with the grade of malignancy in children
tumoral       loss of function
transcripts with exon 5a, which generate an ADARB1 isoform with ~50p 100 reduced activity, were predominantlyexpressed in the glioma cell lines, whereas transcripts without exon 5a were predominantly expressed in normal human astrocytes
constitutional     --low  
ADAR2-reduction is associated with progressive deterioration of nuclear architecture, resulting in vacuolated nuclei due to a Ca(2+)-permeable AMPA receptor-mediated mechanism
