Serum proteomic analysis identifies sex-specific differences in lipid metabolism and inflammation profiles in adults diagnosed with Asperger syndromeMolecular Autism - Tập 5 - Trang 1-10 - 2014

The higher prevalence of Asperger Syndrome (AS) and other autism spectrum
conditions in males has been known for many years. However, recent multiplex
immunoassay profiling studies have shown that males and females with AS have
distinct proteomic changes in serum. Here, we analysed sera from adults
diagnosed with AS (males = 14, females = 16) and controls (males = 13,
females = 16) not on medicati... hiện toàn bộ
Disruption of PHF21A causes syndromic intellectual disability with craniofacial anomalies, epilepsy, hypotonia, and neurobehavioral problems including autismMolecular Autism - Tập 10 - Trang 1-15 - 2019

Kolatkar, Lawrence C. Layman, Duchwan Ryu, Il-Keun Kong, Suneeta Madan-Khetarpal, Cheol-Hee Kim
PHF21A has been associated with intellectual disability and craniofacial
anomalies based on its deletion in the Potocki-Shaffer syndrome region at
11p11.2 and its disruption in three patients with balanced translocations. In
addition, three patients with de novo truncating mutations in PHF21A were
reported recently. Here, we analyze genomic data from seven unrelated
individuals with mutations in P... hiện toàn bộ
Leveraging blood serotonin as an endophenotype to identify de novo and rare variants involved in autismMolecular Autism - - 2017
Rui Chen, Lea K. Davis, Stephen Guter, Qiang Wei, Suma Jacob, Melissa H. Potter, Nancy J. Cox, Edwin H. Cook, James S. Sutcliffe, Bingshan Li
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is one of the most highly heritable
neuropsychiatric disorders, but underlying molecular mechanisms are still
unresolved due to extreme locus heterogeneity. Leveraging meaningful
endophenotypes or biomarkers may be an effective strategy to reduce
heterogeneity to identify novel ASD genes. Numerous lines of evidence suggest a
link between hyperserotonemia, i.e., eleva... hiện toàn bộ
Exome sequencing of extended families with autism reveals genes shared across neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disordersMolecular Autism - Tập 5 - Trang 1-10 - 2014

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) comprise a range of neurodevelopmental
conditions of varying severity, characterized by marked qualitative difficulties
in social relatedness, communication, and behavior. Despite overwhelming
evidence of high heritability, results from genetic studies to date show that
ASD etiology is extremely heterogeneous and only a fraction of autism genes have
been discovered... hiện toàn bộ
Insulin-like growth factor-1 rescues synaptic and motor deficits in a mouse model of autism and developmental delayMolecular Autism - Tập 4 - Trang 1-4 - 2013
Ozlem Bozdagi, Teresa Tavassoli, Joseph D Buxbaum
Haploinsufficiency of SHANK3, due to either hemizygous gene deletion (termed
22q13 deletion syndrome or Phelan-McDermid syndrome) or to gene mutation,
accounts for about 0.5% of the cases of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and/or
developmental delay, and there is evidence for a wider role for SHANK3 and
glutamate signaling abnormalities in ASD and related conditions. Therapeutic
approaches that rev... hiện toàn bộ

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition whose
biological basis is yet to be elucidated. The Australian Autism Biobank (AAB) is
an initiative of the Cooperative Research Centre for Living with Autism (Autism
CRC) to establish an Australian resource of biospecimens, phenotypes and genomic
data for research on autism. Genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism

Is social camouflaging associated with anxiety and depression in autistic adults?Molecular Autism - Tập 12 Số 1

Abstract Background There is inconsistent evidence for a clear pattern of
association between ‘camouflaging’ (strategies used to mask and/or compensate
for autism characteristics during social interactions) and mental health.
Methods This study explored the relationship between self-reported camouflaging
and generalised anxiety, depression, and social anxiety in a large sample of
autistic adults a... hiện toàn bộ
Sex-specific and sex-independent steroid-related biomarkers in early second trimester maternal serum associated with autismMolecular Autism - Tập 14 - Trang 1-12 - 2023
Deborah A. Bilder, Whitney Worsham, Scott Sullivan, M. Sean Esplin, Paul Burghardt, Alison Fraser, Amanda V. Bakian
Prenatal exposure to maternal metabolic conditions associated with inflammation
and steroid dysregulation has previously been linked to increased autism risk.
Steroid-related maternal serum biomarkers have also provided insight into the in
utero steroid environment for offspring who develop autism. This study examines
the link between autism among offspring and early second trimester maternal
