INTRODUCTION: Essential tremor is the most frequent movement disorder in adults. It has been considered a benign disease, but can result in significant physical and psychosocial disability. Pharmacological treatment is still not very satisfactory. Its causation, pathophysiology and anatomy remain only partially understood.
AIMS: An understanding of its neurochemical basis is essential to be able to develop more efficient therapies. We review what is currently known in this field in order to motivate further research and ideas that allow an enhanced understanding of the disease and which foster the development of new pharmacological therapies.
DEVELOPMENT: We review the studies conducted to date in humans and in animal models of neurotransmitters (gamma-aminobutyric acid, glutamate, noradrenalin, serotonin, adenosine), proteins and other neurochemical phenomena, such as T-type calcium channels, in essential tremor.
CONCLUSIONS: Four neurochemical dysfunctions have been described that basically occur in the cerebellum and the inferior olivary nucleus: alteration of the GABAergic system, increased post-inhibitory rebound via T-type calcium currents, decreased neuronal inhibition mechanisms and an increase in excitatory neurotransmitter activity. These neurochemical dysfunctions would involve an increase in the activity of the deep neurons of the cerebellum with an oscillatory activity that would shift to the thalamic nucleus and the motor cortex, which in turn would lead to the appearance of tremor. Further research is needed to be able to confirm these hypotheses and to continue to advance towards achieving more efficient pharmacological treatments for patients with essential tremor.
