Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder May be Linked to Renalase Enzyme Amount Synthesized in Brain

Abstract

Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder in children (excessive mobility, attention and concentration deficit, impulsivity) are important health problems that may affect life quality lifelong. Attention deficit generally take place with dyslexia, dyscalculia and dysgraphia which are known generally as specific learning difficulty (SLD) [1]. Principal biochemical mechanism underlying attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder might be related with inadequate synthesizing of dopamine and noradrenalin in brain or rapidly catabolism of these molecules.
