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 ...

Prenatal auditory experience and its sequelae

Lukas Vogelsang, Marin Vogelsang

Towards the end of the second trimester of gestation, a human fetus is able to register environmental sounds. This in utero auditory experience is characterized by comprising strongly low-pass-filtered versions of sounds from the external world. Here, we p ...

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 ...

A new rat model of creatine transporter deficiency reveals behavioral disorder and altered brain metabolism

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Jocelin Grosse, Dunja Simicic

Creatine is an organic compound used as fast phosphate energy buffer to recycle ATP, important in tissues with high energy demand such as muscle or brain. Creatine is taken from the diet or endogenously synthetized by the enzymes AGAT and GAMT, and specifi ...

Unravelling socio-motor biomarkers in schizophrenia

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Laura Bénédicte Marine Cohen

We present novel, low-cost and non-invasive potential diagnostic biomarkers of schizophrenia. They are based on the 'mirrorgame', a coordination task in which two partners are asked to mimic each other's hand movements. In particular, we use the patient's ...

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 ...

Improving emotional face perception in autism with diuretic bumetanide: A proof-of-concept behavioral and functional brain imaging pilot study

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Loyse Hippolyte, Ophélie Rogier, Torsten Ruest

Clinical observations have shown that GABA-acting benzodiazepines exert paradoxical excitatory effects in autism, suggesting elevated intracellular chloride (Cl-)(i) and excitatory action of GABA. In a previous double-blind randomized study, we have shown ...

It's All in the Eyes: Subcortical and Cortical Activation during Grotesqueness Perception in Autism

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Loyse Hippolyte, Ophélie Rogier, Britt Russo

Atypical face processing plays a key role in social interaction difficulties encountered by individuals with autism. In the current fMRI study, the Thatcher illusion was used to investigate several aspects of face processing in 20 young adults with high-fu ...
