Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of inherited intellectual disability (ID)
and a primary genetic cause of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). FXS arises from the …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder mainly characterized by
social-communication impairments, repetitive behaviors and altered sensory perception …

Perineuronal nets (PNNs) which mostly surround the parvalbumin (PV) neurons, have been
shown to play critical roles in neural plasticity. Recently, PNNs have been shown to regulate …

Abstract Background Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are specialized extracellular matrix
structures mainly found around fast-spiking parvalbumin (FS-PV) interneurons. In the adult …

Abstract Background Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a leading genetic cause of autism and
intellectual disability with cortical hyperexcitability and sensory hypersensitivity attributed to …

Introduction Disruptions to the balance of excitation and inhibition in the inferior colliculus
(IC) occur during aging and underlie various aspects of hearing loss. Specifically, the age …

The hippocampus is one of the brain areas affected by autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Individuals with ASD typically have impairments in hippocampus-dependent learning …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition mainly
characterized by social impairments and repetitive behaviors. Among these core symptoms …

Genetic variance in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is often associated with mechanisms
that broadly fall into the category of neuroplasticity. Parvalbumin positive neurons and their …

Sensory processing abnormalities are frequently associated with autism spectrum disorders,
but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here we studied auditory processing in a …
