Abstract excerpt

The hereditary dystonias include a clinically heterogeneous group of movement disorders varying in symptoms, age of onset, and drug responsiveness. Dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH), the enzyme that converts dopamine to norepinephrine, has been implicated in dystonia because of increased serum levels of DBH in some patients, the influence of catecholaminergic drugs on the human phenotypes, and altered...
