aspartic acid and Rett Syndrome

aspartic acid has been researched along with Rett Syndrome in 7 studies

Aspartic Acid: One of the non-essential amino acids commonly occurring in the L-form. It is found in animals and plants, especially in sugar cane and sugar beets. It may be a neurotransmitter.
aspartic acid : An alpha-amino acid that consists of succinic acid bearing a single alpha-amino substituent
L-aspartic acid : The L-enantiomer of aspartic acid.

Rett Syndrome: An inherited neurological developmental disorder that is associated with X-LINKED INHERITANCE and may be lethal in utero to hemizygous males. The affected female is normal until the age of 6-25 months when progressive loss of voluntary control of hand movements and communication skills; ATAXIA; SEIZURES; autistic behavior; intermittent HYPERVENTILATION; and HYPERAMMONEMIA appear. (From Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, p199)
