Treg Cells Modulate Neuroinflammation and Behavioral Deficits in Autism: Evidence From MR‐Based Genetic Analyses and Experimental Models

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that is increasingly linked to immune dysfunction and neuroinflammation. Regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are crucial in maintaining immune homeostasis, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ASD.

Bayesian Network Structure and Predictability of Autistic Traits

Psychological Reports, 2020
The aim of this work is to explore the construct of autistic traits through the lens of network analysis with recently introduced Bayesian methods. A conditional dependence network structure was estimated from a data set composed of 649 university students that completed an autistic traits questionnaire.

Neurodevelopmental and Psychiatric Studies in Children and Adolescents With Neurofibromatosis Type I: A Comprehensive Scoping Review

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A comprehensive synthesis of the broad range of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric manifestations in NF1 is needed to identify knowledge gaps and future directions for NF1 research. In the following scoping review, we identify and summarize the scope of research that examines neurodevelopmental and psychiatric manifestations, both as ...

Autistic-like traits in adult patients with mood disorders and schizophrenia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Autism spectrum disorder often co-occurs with other psychiatric disorders. Although a high prevalence of autistic-like traits/symptoms has been identified in the pediatric psychiatric population of normal intelligence, there are no reports from adult ...

Autistic individuals show less grouping-induced bias in numerosity judgments

Frontiers in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, 2023
IntroductionWhen items are connected together, they tend to be perceived as an integrated whole rather than as individual dots, causing a strong underestimation of the numerosity of the ensemble. Previous evidence on grouping-induced biases of numerosity

Is it me? Self-recognition bias across sensory modalities and its relationship to autistic traits [PDF]

, 2015
Background Atypical self-processing is an emerging theme in autism research, suggested by lower self-reference effect in memory, and atypical neural responses to visual self-representations. Most research on physical self-processing in autism uses visual

Construction of pathogenic Sec16a mutation mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Yaqiang Hu et al. engineered a pathogenic Sec16a mutant mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. They observed that the Sec16a mutant mice displayed diminished learning and memory capabilities, along with a limb‐clasping phenotype upon tail suspension.
