MONOAMINE OXIDASE A DEFICIENCY

Alternate names

MONOAMINE OXIDASE A DEFICIENCY Is also known as brunner syndrome

Description

Monoamine oxidase-A deficiency is a very rare recessive X-linked biogenic amine metabolism disorder characterized clinically by mild intellectual deficit, impulsive aggressiveness, and sometimes violent behavior and presenting from childhood.

Most common symptoms of MONOAMINE OXIDASE A DEFICIENCY

Intellectual disability
Global developmental delay
Cognitive impairment
Motor delay
Tremor

AUTISM, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO, X-LINKED 2; AUTSX2

Description

Autism, the prototypic pervasive developmental disorder (PDD), is usually apparent by 3 years of age. It is characterized by a triad of limited or absent verbal communication, a lack of reciprocal social interaction or responsiveness, and restricted, stereotypic, and ritualized patterns of interests and behavior (Bailey et al., 1996; Risch et al., 1999). 'Autism spectrum disorder,' sometimes referred to as ASD, is a broader phenotype encompassing the less severe disorders Asperger syndrome (see ASPG1; {608638}) and pervasive developmental disorder, not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS). 'Broad autism phenotype' includes individuals with some symptoms of autism, but who do not meet the full criteria for autism or other disorders. Mental retardation coexists in approximately two-thirds of individuals with ASD, except for Asperger syndrome, in which mental retardation is conspicuously absent (Jones et al., 2008). Genetic studies in autism often include family members with these less stringent diagnoses (Schellenberg et al., 2006).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of autism, see {209850}.
