In this chapter, we will briefly discuss recent literature on the role of MET receptor tyrosine
kinase (RTK) in brain development and how perturbation of MET signaling may alter normal …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurological and developmental disorder whose late
diagnosis is based on subjective tests. In seeking for earlier diagnosis, we aimed to find …

People with autism spectrum disorder and other neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are
behaviorally and medically heterogeneous. The combination of polygenicity and gene …

The stria vascularis is a nonsensory structure that is essential for auditory hair cell function
by maintaining potassium concentration of the scala media. During mouse embryonic …

Single nucleotide variants (SNV) in the gene encoding the MET receptor tyrosine kinase
have been associated with an increased risk for autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The MET …

Background Autism is usually conceptualized as a disorder or disease that involves
fundamentally abnormal neurodevelopment. In the present work, the hypothesis that a suite …

Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a prevalent neurodevelopmental
disorder characterized by impairment to sustain attention and inability to control impulses …

Etiology is unknown in the majority of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). One
strategy to investigate pathogenesis is to stratify this heterogeneous disorder based on a …

Background This meta-analysis aimed to explore the most robust findings across numerous
existing resting-state functional imaging and voxel-based morphometry (VBM) studies on the …

Accelerated evolution of regulatory sequence can alter the expression pattern of target
genes, and cause phenotypic changes. In this study, we used DNase I hypersensitive sites …
