A review of the biochemical pathways studied and abnormalities reported in the Rett syndrome.
A review of the current research on selected biochemical pathways and reported abnormalities in the Rett syndrome (RS) is presented. While RS has a clinical course that is similar to known metabolic diseases, consistent abnormal biochemical findings in RS patients have not been identified.
