Journal ArticleDOI
Mutations of the X-linked genes encoding neuroligins NLGN3 and NLGN4 are associated with autism.
Stéphane Jamain,Hélène Quach,Catalina Betancur,Maria Råstam,Catherine Colineaux,I. Carina Gillberg,Henrik Soderstrom,Bruno Giros,Marion Leboyer,Christopher Gillberg,Thomas Bourgeron +10 more
TL;DR: The authors reported mutations in two X-linked genes encoding neuroligins NLGN3 and NLGN4 in siblings with autism spectrum disorders, which affect cell-adhesion molecules localized at the synapse and suggest that a defect of synaptogenesis may predispose to autism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutations in the gene encoding the synaptic scaffolding protein SHANK3 are associated with autism spectrum disorders.

TL;DR: It is reported that a mutation of a single copy of SHANK3 on chromosome 22q13 can result in language and/or social communication disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This Consensus Statement is one of the actions taken by the European Network Adult ADHD in order to support the clinician with research evidence and clinical experience from 18 European countries in which ADHD in adults is recognised and treated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychiatric and psychosocial problems in adults with normal-intelligence autism spectrum disorders.
Björn Hofvander,Richard Delorme,Pauline Chaste,Agneta Nydén,Elisabet Wentz,Elisabet Wentz,Ola Ståhlberg,Evelyn Herbrecht,Astrid Stopin,Henrik Anckarsäter,Henrik Anckarsäter,Henrik Anckarsäter,Christopher Gillberg,Maria Råstam,Marion Leboyer +14 more
TL;DR: The clinical psychiatric presentation and important outcome measures of a large group of normal-intelligence adult patients with ASDs, characterized by impaired social interaction and non-verbal communication in adulthood as well as in childhood, are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Genetics of Autism Spectrum Disorders and Related Neuropsychiatric Disorders in Childhood
TL;DR: Different neuropsychiatric disorders seem to have a common genetic etiology, suggesting caution in the use of diagnostic entities and proband status in efforts to uncover genes predisposing to autism spectrum disorders.
