          Unexpected Genetic Influence of Fathers in Autism

          Researchers provide new insight into the genetic origins of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The study suggests that, contrary to long-standing beliefs, siblings with ASD may share more of their father's genome. The investigation involved analysis of over 6,000 volunteer families' genomes, revealing a potential new source of ASD.

          Potential New Treatment for a Leading Cause of Autism

          Researchers have identified a potential new treatment method for Fragile X Syndrome (FXS), a leading cause of autism spectrum disorders. The method involves contracting the CGG trinucleotide repeat in the FMR1 gene, thereby restoring the essential FMRP protein expression necessary for brain development.

          Linking Oxytocin and Vasopressin: A Novel Pathway for Autism Therapy

          Researchers discovered an oxytocin deficiency in patients with a rare vasopressin deficiency, a pituitary gland disease. This deficiency could potentially explain symptoms such as anxiety and social interaction difficulties that persist despite treatment.

          Gray Matter Volume Linked to Language Deficits in Autism

          Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who have language impairment show lower gray matter volume and greater gyrification in the temporal and frontal lobes of the cerebral cortex, which are crucial for language function. The study's findings could help design specialized education programs for children with autism by understanding the structural characteristics that contribute to behavioral deficits.

          Link Found Between Common Ear, Nose, and Throat Infections in Preschoolers and Increased Risk of Autism

          Preschoolers with common ear, nose, and throat (ENT) issues may be at risk of autism or high levels of autism traits, according to a study published in BMJ Open. The research, which tracked over 10,000 children from birth, suggests that early identification and treatment of ENT conditions may help improve these children's quality of life and provide insight into the origins of autism. which likely involves an interplay of genetic, environmental, and biological factors.

          Males with Neurodevelopmental Disorders Face Higher Risk of Testicular Cancer

          Men with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism or ADHD, have a slightly higher risk of developing testicular cancer than those without such disorders. The research is the first to provide a link between neurodevelopmental disorders and testicular cancer risk, although the absolute risk increase was less than 1%.

          Early Indicators of Autism May Be Identified in Fetal Brain Scans

          A study by King's College researchers has identified a link between autism traits and isolated fetal ventriculomegaly - a common antenatal brain abnormality. Using MRI brain scans, the study supports the need for early identification and intervention for families and could improve the long-term support of those affected.

          Study reveals a potential causal link between reduced levels of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in blood plasma and poor sleep quality and disrupted sleep patterns in children on the autism spectrum. Researchers also found lipidome signatures in autistic children with sleep disorders were similar to signatures associated with an unhealthy diet.
