AB  - The  pediatric  neurotransmitter  disorders  are  a  fairly  recently  described  group  of  inherited  neurometabolic  disorders  related  to  defects  in  neurotransmitter  synthesis  or  breakdown.  These  disorders  may  be  divided  into  defects  of  γ-aminobutyric  acid  (GABA),  glycine  or  monoamine  metabolism,  and  secondary  neurotransmitter  deficiency  states.  This  chapter  will  primarily  discuss  disorders  of  monoamine  metabolism;  we  will  focus  on  the  diseases  best  characterized  to  date,  including  GTP  cyclohydrolase  deficiency,  tyrosine  hydroxylase  deficiency,  aromatic  l-amino  acid  decarboxylase  deficiency,  and  monoamine  A  deficiency.
