Loss of Wdfy3 in mice alters cerebral cortical neurogenesis reflecting aspects of the autism pathology. [PDF]

, 2014
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are complex and heterogeneous developmental disabilities affecting an ever-increasing number of children worldwide. The diverse manifestations and complex, largely genetic aetiology of ASDs pose a major challenge to the ...

Adenylyl Cyclase 8 in Dorsal CA1 Neurons Prevents Depressive‐Like Behaviors by Maintaining Neuronal Excitability and Glutamatergic Neurotransmission Through TIP39‐PTH2R Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Depression, a prevalent neuropsychiatric disorder with unclear pathogenesis, involves dysfunctional adenylyl cyclase 8 (Adcy8) as a key risk factor. Chronic stress selectively reduces Adcy8 expression in the dorsal CA1 (dCA1) neurons. Depletion of Adcy8 in dCA1 excitatory neurons induces depressive‐like behaviors by impairing neuronal excitability and ...

Disruption to control network function correlates with altered dynamic connectivity in the wider autism spectrum. [PDF]

, 2017
Autism is a common developmental condition with a wide, variable range of co-occurring neuropsychiatric symptoms. Contrasting with most extant studies, we explored whole-brain functional organization at multiple levels simultaneously in a large subject ...

Induced Proprioceptor and Low‐Threshold Mechanoreceptor Neurons Derived from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Exhibit Distinct Functional Mechanosensory Properties

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study describes derivation of two distinct mechanosensory subpopulations from human pluripotent stem cells using a transcription factor mediated approach. Of significance, functional interrogation of induced mechanosensory subtypes reveal their unique responses to mechanical stimulation in the absence of end‐organs.

A pilot evaluation of the Baby Social ABCs caregiver-mediated intervention for 6–15-month-olds with early signs of autism—feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary evidence

Frontiers in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
BackgroundAutism spectrum disorder (autism) is a neurodevelopmental condition with a high prevalence of approximately 1 in 50 children. Early intervention can support long-term outcomes.

The Gut Microbiota Regulates Motor Deficits via Butyrate in a Gnal+/− Mouse Model of DYT25 Dystonia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The present study provides compelling evidence for a modulatory role of the gut microbiota in the pathology of DYT25 dystonia, and butyrate supplementation alleviates the motor deficits of dystonia in Gnal+/− mice. Abstract Dystonia is the third most common movement disorder, following essential tremor and Parkinson's disease. The underlying mechanisms

Adaptation to different communicative contexts: an eye tracking study of autistic adults

Journal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders, 2019
Background Learning through social observation (i.e., watching other people interact) lays the foundation for later social skills and social cognition. However, social situations are often complex, and humans are only capable of attending to one aspect ...

Cross-modal extinction in a boy with severely autistic behaviour and high verbal intelligence [PDF]

, 2008
Anecdotal reports from individuals with autism suggest a loss of awareness to stimuli from one modality in the presence of stimuli from another. Here we document such a case in a detailed study of T.M., a 13-year-old boy with autism in whom significant ...

The hallmarks of autism

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
I suggest that the current study of autism is problematic, due to: (1) its failure to pursue a medical model of disease causation, with protocols for differential diagnoses of causes; (2) a notable incidence of unrecognized false positive diagnoses in children; (3) the conceptual equating of autism with sets of traits that have been shown to be ...

Brd4 BD1 Domain Antagonism of MS436 Preserves Blood‐Brain Barrier Integrity via Rnf43/β‐Catenin Signaling Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MS436 competitively binds to the BD1 domain of Brd4, thereby suppressing Brd4 induced degradation of tight junction proteins via the Rnf43‐Fzd4‐β‐catenin signaling pathway. Consequently, this attenuation of degradation reduces blood‐brain barrier leakage, leading to an improved overall prognosis after stroke.
