TL;DR: A genome-wide analysis of rare copy-number variation in 1124 autism spectrum disorder families, each comprised of a single proband, unaffected parents, and, in most kindreds, an unaffected sibling, finds significant association of ASD with de novo duplications of 7q11.23, where the reciprocal deletion causes Williams-Beuren syndrome.

TL;DR: Gen expression profiles in 2,752 twins were assessed, using a classic twin design, to quantify expression heritability and quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in peripheral blood, providing a new resource toward understanding the genetic control of transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell type-specific gene expression of midbrain dopaminergic neurons reveals molecules involved in their vulnerability and protection
TL;DR: The results indicate that certain differentially expressed molecules in A9 and A10 DA neurons may play key roles in their relative vulnerability to toxins and PD.
