<i>MECP2</i> duplication causes aberrant GABA pathways, circuits and behaviors in transgenic monkeys: neural mappings to patients with autism
2019-08-07
Abstract excerpt
MECP2 gain- and loss-of-function in genetically-engineered monkeys demonstrably recapitulate typical phenotypes in patients, yet where MECP2 mutation affects the monkey brain and whether/how it relates to autism pathology remains unknown. Using expression profiles of 13,888 genes in 182 macaque neocortical samples, we first show that MECP2 coexpressed genes are enriched in GABA-related signaling pathways. We the...
