Evaluation of Pax6 Mutant Rat as a Model for Autism

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined behaviors of rSey2+ rats and revealed that they exhibited abnormality in social interaction (more aggression and withdrawal) in addition to impairment in rearing activity and in fear-conditioned memory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyunsaturated fatty acid deficiency during neurodevelopment in mice models the prodromal state of schizophrenia through epigenetic changes in nuclear receptor genes

TL;DR: It is shown that gestational and early postnatal dietary deprivation of two PUFAs—arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)—elicited schizophrenia-like phenotypes in mouse offspring at adulthood, suggesting that PUFA deficiency during the early neurodevelopmental period in mice could model the prodromal state of schizophrenia through changes in the epigenetic regulation of nuclear receptor genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protocadherin α(PCDHA ) as a novel susceptibility gene for autism

TL;DR: This study provides strong genetic evidence of PCDHA as a potential candidate gene for autism, withstanding multiple testing corrections in multiplex families.
