The amygdala is one of several brain regions suspected to be pathological in autism.
Previously, we found that young children with autism have a larger amygdala than typically …

Converging evidence from diverse studies suggests that atypical brain connectivity in autism
affects in distinct ways short-and long-range cortical pathways, disrupting neural …

Dendrite morphogenesis is a complex but well-orchestrated process and includes the
development of dendritic branches, forming characteristic dendrite arbors, and dendritic …

A distinct pathology for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) remains elusive. Human and animal
studies have focused on investigating the role of neurons in ASD. However, recent studies …

Substantial progress has been made toward understanding the genetic architecture, cellular
substrates, brain circuits and endophenotypic profiles of neuropsychiatric disorders …

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are complex conditions that stem from a combination of
genetic, epigenetic and environmental influences during early pre-and postnatal childhood …

The amygdala undergoes aberrant development in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We
previously found that there are reduced neuron numbers in the adult postmortem amygdala …

BACKGROUND: In the neurodevelopmental disorder autism, several neuroimmune
abnormalities have been reported. However, it is unknown whether microglial somal volume …

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that display
a triad of core behavioral deficits including restricted interests, often accompanied by …

Background Genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors contribute since infancy to sexual
dimorphism in regional brain structures of subjects with typical development. However, the …
