Enhancer-targeted CRISPR-A rescues haploinsufficiency and mutant phenotypes in organoid models of autism
2024-03-14
Abstract excerpt
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable condition with diverse clinical presentations. Approximately 20% of ASD’s genetic susceptibility is imparted by de novo mutations of major effect, most of which cause haploinsufficiency. We mapped enhancers of two high confidence autism genes – CHD8 and SCN2A and used CRISPR-based gene activation (CRISPR-A) in hPSC-derived excitatory neurons and cerebral fore...
