The pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorder

This manuscript reviews the mechanisms that contribute to the production of the autism spectrum disorder (ASD), especially the genetic and immunological components. Knowing the participating elements and mechanisms are essential to establish preventive measures and look for early markers. The ASD ca...

description This manuscript reviews the mechanisms that contribute to the production of the autism spectrum disorder (ASD), especially the genetic and immunological components.

There seems to be different environmental insults that may act as triggers in genetically predisposed subjects; these insults can promote an inflammatory response in which interleukin-6 could participate actively at the level of neural stem cells and progenitors.
