A role for biogenic amines in developmental language disorders
Abstract
The authors discuss the current uncertainty regarding etiology, treatment, and classification of developmental language disorders (DLD). Referring to previous reports in the literature, they propose a specific subclass of DLD associated with a hypothesized dysfunction of the dopaminergic system of the basal ganglia. Mechanisms of dysfunction and treatment implications are discussed.
