Conference on rare neurotransmitter diseases in Belgrade The conference on rare neurotransmitter diseases will take part from 29th of September till 1st of October 2022 both in presence in Belgrade/Serbia and online. “Rare neurotransmitter diseases: from novel research to focused treatments through iNTD network strengthening and patient empowerment” aims to [...]
Novel Protein Biomarkers of Monoamine Metabolism Defects Correlate with Disease Severity Background: Genetic defects of monoamine neurotransmitters are rare neurological diseases amenable to treatment with variable response. They are major causes of early parkinsonism and other spectrum of movement disorders including dopa-responsive dystonia. Objectives: The objective of this [...]
Detection of 3-O-methyldopa in dried blood spots for neonatal diagnosis of aromatic L-amino-acid decarboxylase deficiency: The northeastern Italian experience Objective: Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency is a rare inherited autosomal recessive disorder of biogenic amine metabolism. Diagnosis requires analysis of neurotransmitter metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid, AADC [...]
Brain MR patterns in inherited disorders of monoamine neurotransmitters: An analysis of 70 patients Inherited monoamine neurotransmitter disorders (iMNDs) are rare disorders with clinical manifestations ranging from mild infantile hypotonia, movement disorders to early infantile severe encephalopathy. Neuroimaging has been reported as non-specific. We systematically analyzed [...]
Assessment of intellectual impairment, health-related quality of life, and behavioral phenotype in patients with neurotransmitter related disorders: Data from the iNTD registry Inherited disorders of neurotransmitter metabolism are a group of rare diseases, which are caused by impaired synthesis, transport, or degradation of neurotransmitters or cofactors [...]
Rare neurotransmitter diseases: from novel research to focused treatments through iNTD network strengthening and patient empowerment Save the Date: 29th September - 01st October 2022 We are pleased to announce that the conference on rare neurotransmitter diseases will take place on 29th September - 01st October [...]
Insights into the expanding phenotypic spectrum of inherited disorders of biogenic amines Inherited disorders of neurotransmitter metabolism are rare neurodevelopmental diseases presenting with movement disorders and global developmental delay. This study presents the results of the first standardized deep phenotyping approach and describes the clinical and [...]
Inborn errors of (synaptic) neurotransmission After last year's APS Annual Meeting had to be cancelled at short notice due to the Covid.Pandemic and planning was also difficult in 2021, it is now a special pleasure for us to invite you to the APS Annual Meeting in [...]
