Abstract excerpt
ADNP (Activity-dependent neuroprotective protein) is a top-ranking autism risk gene. Here we examined synaptic alterations in heterozygous mice carrying an autism mutation on Adnp C-terminus (Adnpmut). We found that PFC pyramidal neurons in Adnpmut mice exhibited significantly diminished glutamatergic and GABAergic synaptic transmission, as indicated by markedly reduced excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSC) and...
