Das Angelman-Syndrom (engl.: Happy-Puppet-Syndrome) ist eine seltene, genetisch bedingte Erkrankung. Sie äußert sich unter anderem durch geistige und körperliche Einschränkungen, Entwicklungsstörungen (vor allem der Sprache) und Hyperaktivität. Auffällig ist das puppenhafte Aussehen und der freudige Gesichtsausdruck der Betroffenen.
Das Angelman-Syndrom ist die Folge einer seltenen genetischen Veränderung auf Chromosom 15 (Mikrodeletion auf dem mütterlichen Chromosom oder uniparentale Disomie 15q11-13). Sie geht oft einher mit Entwicklungsverzögerungen, kognitiver Behinderung , überdurchschnittlicher Fröhlichkeit und einer stark reduzierten Lautsprachentwicklung .
Learn about the genetic disorder that causes developmental delay, intellectual disability, seizures, and happy demeanor. Find out how to participate in clinical trials and access resources for AS.
Early signs of Angelman syndrome typically include balance and motor problems associated with ataxia (the inability to coordinate muscle movements). As a result, movements are often jerky and accompanied by fine tremors in the arms and legs.
Angelman syndrome is a complex genetic disorder that causes developmental and neurological problems, such as severe speech impairment and trouble walking and balancing ().Affects about 1 in 10,000 people

Angelman syndrome is a genetic disorder that primarily affects the nervous system. Characteristic features of this condition include developmental delay, intellectual disability, severe speech impairment, problems with movement and balance (ataxia), epilepsy, and a small head size.
Angelman syndrome (AS) is a rare neurogenetic disorder that affects about one in 15,000 people, or approximately 500,000 individuals worldwide.
Treatment. There's no cure for Angelman syndrome. Research is looking at targeting certain genes for treatment. Current treatment focuses on managing symptoms and addressing the developmental delays in children with Angelman syndrome.

In 1965 Harry Angelman, a British pediatrician, described the "Puppet Children," later being renamed Angelman syndrome (AS). Angelman described three children who had similar symptoms of learning disability, minimal or absent speech, ataxic and jerky movements, and a happy social disposition.[1]
Angelman syndrome (AS) is characterized by severe developmental delay or intellectual disability, severe speech impairment, gait ataxia and/or tremulousness of the limbs, and unique behavior with an apparent happy demeanor that includes frequent laughing, smiling, and excitability. Microcephaly and seizures are also common. Developmental delays are first noted at around age six months; however
Angelman Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder affects the nervous system. People with the condition may have developmental delays, learning disabilities, speech impairment and problems with balance and coordination.
The Mission. The mission of the Angelman Syndrome Foundation is to advance the awareness and treatment of Angelman syndrome through education and information, research, and support for individuals with Angelman syndrome, their families and other concerned parties.
