Characterization of the rat mutant dystonic (dt): a new animal model of dystonia musculorum deformans.
An inherited neurological disorder characterized by sustained twisting movements during waking has been discovered in Sprague-Dawley rats. The mutation follows an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance and has been named dystonic (dt). The rat mutants are indistinguishable from normal littermates in open field behavior and climbing activity prior to postnatal days 9 to 10. Clinical signs be...
متن کاملCharacteristic alterations in responses to imposed wrist displacements in parkinsonian rigidity and dystonia musculorum deformans.
The amplitude and temporal modulation of the segmented EMG activity in flexor carpi radialis, evoked by imposed angular wrist extension, was studied with respect to the level of pre-existing background activity in rigid parkinsonian (PK) and dystonia musculorum deformans (DMD) patients. The interdependence of the evoked M1 and M2-3 segments on pre-existing background EMG activity and initial ve...
متن کاملMotor Unit Abnormalities in Dystonia musculorum Mice
Dystonia musculorum (dt) is a mouse inherited sensory neuropathy caused by mutations in the dystonin gene. While the primary pathology lies in the sensory neurons of dt mice, the overt movement disorder suggests motor neurons may also be affected. Here, we report on the contribution of motor neurons to the pathology in dt(27J) mice. Phenotypic dt(27J) mice display reduced alpha motor neuron cel...
متن کاملDystonia.
Therapy for most people with dystonia is symptomatic, directed at lessening the intensity of the dystonic contractions. For a small minority of patients (eg, those with dopa-responsive dystonia, Wilson's disease, or psychogenic dystonia), specific therapy directed at one of the many causes of dystonia is available. Before initiating treatment, clinicians need to decide if a patient has a form o...
متن کاملDelayed-onset dystonia in patients with "static" encephalopathy.
Eight cases of persistent dystonia appearing one to 14 years after non-progressive cerebral insults are described. Five were due to perinatal anoxia, one to trauma, and two to cerebral infarction. This phenomemon of delayed-onset dystonia has not been described previously, although review of earlier literature reveals several probable examples. Delayed-onset dystonia due to perinatal anoxia is ...
