Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced behavioral flexibility in autism spectrum disorders

TL;DR: Restricted and repetitive behaviors in ASD are associated with neurocognitive deficits in flexible choice behavior, and alterations in frontostriatal circuitry may contribute to behavioral rigidity in ASD and represent a target for therapeutic intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linkage Disequilibrium of the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Val66Met Polymorphism in Children With a Prepubertal and Early Adolescent Bipolar Disorder Phenotype

TL;DR: This finding in child bipolar disorder is consistent with data for adults with bipolar disorder that show preferential transmission of the Val66 allele.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption at the PTCHD1 Locus on Xp22.11 in Autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability.

Abdul Noor, +55 more
TL;DR: Genetic analysis in thousands of patients and control subjects suggests that the PTCHD1 gene may be part of the Hedgehog signaling pathway, which is important in embryonic development, and suggests that this locus is involved in ~1% of individuals with ASD and intellectual disability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ancestry and pharmacogenetics of antileukemic drug toxicity.

TL;DR: The genotype-phenotype associations were similar whether analyses were adjusted by self-reported race or ancestry-informative genetic markers, and Germ-line polymorphisms are significant determinants of toxicity of antileukemic therapy.
