Genetic and Pharmacological Reversibility of Phenotypes in Mouse Models of Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Abstract excerpt

As autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is largely regarded as a neurodevelopmental condition, long-time consensus was that its hallmark features are irreversible. However, several studies from recent years using defined mouse models of ASD have provided clear evidence that in mice neurobiological and behavioural alterations can be ameliorated or even reversed by genetic restoration or pharmacological treatment either...
