Dendritic pathology in mental retardation: from molecular genetics to neurobiology.

Genes, brain, and behavior - 1 Jan 2006

Dierssen M, Ramakers G J A

Abstract excerpt

Mental retardation (MR) is a developmental brain disorder characterized by impaired cognitive performance and adaptive skills that affects 1-2% of the population. During the last decade, a large number of genes have been cloned that cause MR upon mutation in humans. The causal role of these genes provides an excellent starting point to investigate the cellular, neurobiological and behavioral alterations and...
