PX-RICS-deficient mice mimic autism spectrum disorder in Jacobsen syndrome through impaired GABAA receptor trafficking

The molecular underpinning of autism is unclear. Here the authors show PX-RICS deficient mice exhibit autism-like social behavioural abnormalities and impaired GABAA receptor trafficking, and enhancing inhibitory synaptic transmission with a GABAAreceptor agonist ameliorate the behavioural deficits.
