Immunologic and neurodevelopmental susceptibilities of autism.
Symposium 5 focused on research approaches that are aimed at understanding common patterns of immunological and neurological dysfunction contributing to neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism and ADHD. The session focused on genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors that might act in concert to influence autism risk, severity and co-morbidities, and immunological and neurobiological t...
متن کاملAutism with epilepsy: A neurodevelopmental association
Introduction The association between Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and epilepsy has been extensively documented and the estimated prevalence varies, depending upon the selected population and the clinical characteristics. Children with early-onset epilepsy and early brain damage have a higher risk of presenting ASD compared to those without epilepsy. Genetic abnormalities are likely implicate...
متن کاملTranslational animal models of autism and neurodevelopmental disorders
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder whose diagnosis is based on three behavioral criteria: unusual reciprocal social interactions, deficits in communication, and stereotyped repetitive behaviors with restricted interests. A large number of de novo single gene mutations and chromosomal deletions are associated with autism spectrum disorders. Based on the strong genetic evidence, mice with ta...
متن کاملMolecular Autism: accelerating and integrating research into neurodevelopmental conditions
We are delighted to announce the launch of Molecular Autism a new open-access journal published by BioMed Central. Autism and associated conditions are now recognized as major disabilities with major implications for the public purse. A recent economic analysis of the total annual cost of autism in the UK estimated this to be £28 billion, assuming a prevalence of 1% of the population [1]. The s...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders, ADHD and autism.
Neurodevelopmental disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism represent a significant economic burden, which justify vigorous research to uncover its genetics and developmental clinics for a diagnostic workup. The urgency of addressing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder comorbidities is seen in the chilling fact that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADH...
