Head bobbing due to succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency.

A 9-month-old boy had a short history of “yes-yes” head bobbing (video on the Neurology Web site at www. neurology.org). Mild global delay prompted investigation. Imaging (figure, A–C), biochemical, and molecular findings (table e-1) were consistent with succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency. SSADH deficiency, a -aminobutyric acid degradation disorder, may be associated with mo...

Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase Deficiency : Three Sibling in A Family ( Case Report )

Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase enzyme (SSADH) deficiency is a rare autosomal disorder involving the catabolism of the neurotransmitter γ-amino butyric acid (GABA). In the absence of SSADH, GABA is converted to 4-hydroxybutyrate. 4-hydroxybutyrate, which is regarded as a biochemical hallmark, accumulating in serum, urine and cerebrospinal fluid. We reported three brothers whose parents were...

Therapeutic intervention in mice deficient for succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (gamma-hydroxybutyric aciduria).

Therapeutic intervention for human succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency (gamma-hydroxybutyric aciduria) has been limited to vigabatrin (VGB). Pharmacologically, VGB should be highly effective due to 4-aminobutyrate-transaminase (GABA-transaminase) inhibition, lowering succinic semialdehyde and, thereby, gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) levels. Unfortunately, clinical efficacy h...
