Abstract:
:Recent behavioral data have demonstrated the importance of maintaining low phenylalanine concentrations beyond early childhood in patients with phenylketonuria, which can be a difficult task, particularly during adolescence. Administration of certain large neutral amino-acids (valine, isoleucine, leucine--VIL) appears to reduce phenylalanine concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid of humans and in the brain of rats. The present study compared neuropsychological test-performance of six patients with phenylketonuria during periods of VIL administration and periods when this supplement was not given. Although individual responses to VIL were variable, there was an over-all improvement of about 1 1/2 SD in neuropsychological test performance during VIL treatment. Abstract reasoning and tactile motor problem-solving increased more than pure motor performance.
