- Petrus de Vries: Architect of the autism research field in Africa
Petrus de Vries is on a quest to outfit Africa, the continent of his birth, with trained autism researchers and service providers.
13 min - Hollis Cline: Leapfrogging over gaps in autism researchA basic scientist at heart, Hollis Cline has spent decades pushing the boundaries of what researchers can see in the brain. Her persistence has led to a deeper understanding of how some autism-linked genes influence brain development.The post Hollis Cline: Leapfrogging over gaps in autism research appeared first on Spectrum | Autism Research News.13 min
- Most autism intervention studies lack data on race, ethnicity
Only a quarter of more than 1,000 autism intervention studies published since 1990 report on participants’ races and ethnicities, and just one included a Native American participant.
5 min - Study links screen time to autism, but problems aboundThe paper relied on parent-reported data and adjusted for few potentially confounding variables.The post Study links screen time to autism, but problems abound appeared first on Spectrum | Autism Research News.5 min
- Searching for the biology behind autism's sex bias
The fact that autism seems to affect more boys than girls is often attributed to diagnostic gaps, but the skew remains largely unexplained. Some scientists are turning to basic biology for answers.
15 min - Probe captures neuronal conversations in people
A modified version of a probe commonly used in animals detected neuronal activity across different cortical layers in three people undergoing brain surgery.
4 min - Growth factor analogue shows promise for Rett syndrome in late-stage trialGirls and young women with Rett syndrome have less severe anxiety and breathing problems after treatment with trofinetide, an analogue of insulin-like growth factor 1, according to an unpublished placebo-controlled trial.The post Growth factor analogue shows promise for Rett syndrome in late-stage trial appeared first on Spectrum | Autism Research News.5 min
- Anorexia before or during pregnancy linked to having a child with autism
The connection is likely mediated by environmental, not genetic, factors, according to a new study.
5 min - Loss of autism-linked gene alters synapse development in miceMice missing a copy of the gene ASH1L have excess synapses and autism-like behavioral differences, some of which are reversed by boosting an ASH1L-regulated gene.The post Loss of autism-linked gene alters synapse development in mice appeared first on Spectrum | Autism Research News.5 min
- Immune gene tied to social behavior in autism mouse model
Activating the immune system blunts social behavior in mice missing a copy of the autism-linked gene SHANK3, according to a new study. Blocking TRPV4, which encodes an ion channel involved in inflammatory responses, can reverse this effect.
