Deficiency of autism risk factor ASH1L in prefrontal cortex induces epigenetic aberrations and seizures
ASH1L haploinsufficiency is strongly linked to autism, despite the unknown mechanism. Here, the authors show that ASH1L deficiency in prefrontal cortex causes the downregulation of synaptic genes, leading to seizures, which is rescued by chemogenetic and pharmacological restoration of excitation/inh...

Sumario: | ASH1L haploinsufficiency is strongly linked to autism, despite the unknown mechanism. Here, the authors show that ASH1L deficiency in prefrontal cortex causes the downregulation of synaptic genes, leading to seizures, which is rescued by chemogenetic and pharmacological restoration of excitation/inhibition balance. |
