The Neurobiology and Genetics of Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome: New Avenues Through Large-Scale Collaborative Projects by Peristera Paschou,Kirsten R. Müller-Vahl Pdf

Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a common, albeit severely under-diagnosed, neuropsychiatric disorder that is caused by a complex genetic basis, interacting with environmental factors. High comorbidity rates with other neurodevelopmental disorders such as attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder raise the intriguing hypothesis of a shared etiological background. Abnormalities of corticostriatal-thalamic-cortical circuits (CSTC) and dysfunction of both dopamine and serotonin neurotransmitter systems are assumed to be associated with TS. Recently, multiple lines of evidence also point towards an important role of additional neurotransmitters such as histamine and glutamate. For a very long time, efforts to elucidate the etiology and pathophysiology of TS have been fragmented and hampered by low statistical power. Finally, after more than two decades of active research aiming to identify the etiology and pathophysiology of TS, we are on the verge of a new era, promising exciting and rapid discoveries in the field. Investigators from around the world, representing multiple disciplines and scientific approaches, are joining their efforts in large-scale initiatives supported both by European Union and US National funding agencies, such as the European-funded EMTICS, TACTICS, and TSGeneSEE consortia, the Marie Curie Initial Training Network TS-EUROTRAIN and the European Society for the Study of TS joining forces with the NIH-funded TSAICG, GGRI, and Tic Genetics consortia. Importantly, all these initiatives are supported by TS patient support and advocacy groups. Multiple resources are being consolidated and coming together to serve the study of TS, including large well-characterized patient cohorts, and specialized epidemiological databases, such as the unique resource of the Netherlands Twin Register. This research topic showcases current large-scale collaborative efforts aiming to elucidate the genetic and neurobiological background of TS, through diverse approaches; from genomewide association studies aiming to identify common variants associated to the disorder to neuroimaging studies and animal models. Furthermore, current approaches on the clinical assessment and management of the disorder are presented. Propelled by the gradual availability of large scale TS cohorts, novel methodologies, and importantly, sheer enthusiasm by multiple researchers working together across different countries, the new era of the neurobiology of TS holds the promise to identify novel targets for improved therapies.

Marsden's Book of Movement Disorders by Ivan Donaldson,C. David Marsden,Susanne Schneider,Kailash Bhatia Pdf

This book represents the final work of the late Professor C. David Marsden, who was the most influential figure in the field of movement disorders, in terms of his contributions to both research and clinical practice, in the modern era. It was conceived and written by David Marsden and his colleague at the Institute of Neurology, Prof. Ivan Donaldson. It was their intention that this would be the most comprehensive book on movement disorders and also that it would serve as the 'clinical Bible' for the management of these conditions. It provides a masterly survey of the entire topic, which has been made possible only by vast laboratory and bedside experience. Marsden's Book of Movement Disorders covers the full breadth of movement disorders, from the underlying anatomy and understanding of basal ganglia function to the diagnosis and management of specific movement disorders, including the more common conditions such as Parkinson's Disease through to rare, and very rare conditions such as Niemann-Pick disease. Chapters follow a structured format with historical overviews, definitions, clinical features, differential diagnosis, investigations and treatment covered in a structured way. It is extensively illustrated with many original photographs and diagrams of historical significance. Among these illustrations are still images of some original film clips of some of Dr. Marsden's patients published here for the first time. Comprehensively referenced and updated by experts from the Institute of Neurology at Queen Square, this book is a valuable reference for, not just movement disorder specialists and researchers, but also for clinicians who care for patients with movement disorders.

Tourette Syndrome by Thomas Newell Chase,Arnold J. Friedhoff,Donald J. Cohen Pdf

This volume presents an encyclopedic account of the past decade's achievements in the study and treatment of Tourette Syndrome (TS) and associated behavioral and psychiatric disorders. More than 90 of the foremost authorities from all relevant basic science, clinical, and behavioral science disciplines highlight the major recent developments worldwide - from groundbreaking genetic and neurochemical research and studies using state-of-the-art neuroimaging technologies, to new concepts on the clinical spectrum and natural history of TS, increasing recognition of comorbid conditions, and improved strategies for pharmacotherapy and psychosocial management. The contributors assess the practical utility of current diagnostic criteria for TS and present extensive data on its natural history, its range of clinical manifestations, and its associated disorders. The findings indicate that the severity of TS varies widely among patients, that tics tend to diminish during adolescence and adulthood, and that comorbid conditions - such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder - are often the chief source of impairment. Much evidence suggests that these disturbances and the tics are manifestations of the same underlying diathesis. Noted investigators document significant findings on the mode of inheritance for TS, define the key methodological issues in genetic linkage studies, and describe molecular approaches to the search for the genetic locus for the syndrome. The book also includes new data implicating specific monoamine neurotransmitters and endogenous opioid peptides in the pathogenesis of TS. Other contributors present neuroimaging studies using MRI, PET, and SPECT to delineate brain mechanisms involved in TS. The book offers definitive guidelines on pharmacotherapy for tics and, particularly, for associated obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Of special note are the discussions on treatment of OCD with serotonin reuptake inhibitors and on use of clonidine and stimulants for ADHD with comorbid tics. Additional chapters explore the potential of novel drugs and of nutritional interventions such as megavitamin therapy. Full consideration is also given to the role of behavioral and psychosocial therapies and the educational management of children with TS. This volume is an indispensable resource for all clinicians and investigators involved in the treatment or study of neuropsychiatric disorders. It exemplifies the creative application of the full range of current neuroscience and behavioral methodologies to a complex and important syndrome.
