The autism susceptibility kinase, TAOK2, phosphorylates eEF2 and modulates translation

Genes implicated in translation control have been associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). However, some important genetic causes of autism, including the 16p11.2 microdeletion, bear no obvious connection to translation. Here, we use proteomics, g ...

Effects of eight neuropsychiatric copy number variants on human brain structure

Bogdan Draganski, Lester Melie Garcia, Borja Rodriguez Herreros, Kuldeep Kumar, Claudia Modenato

Many copy number variants (CNVs) confer risk for the same range of neurodevelopmental symptoms and psychiatric conditions including autism and schizophrenia. Yet, to date neuroimaging studies have typically been carried out one mutation at a time, showing ...

Individual differences in sensory sensitivity: Further lessons from an Autism model

Henry Markram, Kamila Markram, Mônica Regina Favre

In this commentary, we join Ward (this issue) in the usefulness of conceptualizing neural output in terms of signal and noise relationships, to create the missing links between neural, behavioral and subjective sensory sensitivity. We draw from our work in ...

Exploring the Extent in the Visual Field of the Honeycomb and Extinction Illusions

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud

There are situations in which what is perceived in central vision is different to what is perceived in the periphery, even though the stimulus display is uniform. Here, we studied two cases, known as the Extinction illusion and the Honeycomb illusion, invo ...

Building a Question-Answering Chatbot using Forum Data in the Semantic Space

Pierre Dillenbourg, Marc Laperrouza, Khalil Mrini

We build a conversational agent which knowledge base is an online forum for parents of autistic children. We collect about 35,000 threads totalling some 600,000 replies, and label 1% of them for usefulness using Amazon Mechanical Turk. We train a Random Fo ...

Chromosomal contacts connect loci associated with autism, BMI and head circumference phenotypes

Bart Deplancke, Marion Leleu, Nele Gheldof, Loyse Hippolyte

Copy number variants (CNVs) are major contributors to genomic imbalance disorders. Phenotyping of 137 unrelated deletion and reciprocal duplication carriers of the distal 16p11.2 220 kb BP2-BP3 interval showed that these rearrangements are associated with ...

The 16p11.2 locus modulates brain structures common to autism, schizophrenia and obesity

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Loyse Hippolyte

Anatomical structures and mechanisms linking genes to neuropsychiatric disorders are not deciphered. Reciprocal copy number variants at the 16p11.2 BP4-BP5 locus offer a unique opportunity to study the intermediate phenotypes in carriers at high risk for a ...

Predictable enriched environment prevents development of hyper-emotionality in the VPA rat model of autism

Henry Markram, Julie Meystre, Deborah La Mendola, Kamila Markram, Mônica Regina Favre, Dimitri Marco Christodoulou, Melissa Cochrane

Understanding the effects of environmental stimulation in autism can improve therapeutic interventions against debilitating sensory overload, social withdrawal, fear and anxiety. Here, we evaluate the role of environmental predictability on behavior and pr ...
