Distinct Synaptic Mechanisms Drive <i>NRXN1</i> Variant-Mediated Pathogenesis in iPSC-Derived Neuronal Models of Autism and Schizophrenia
2025-07-19
Abstract excerpt
Copy number deletions in the 2p16.3/ NRXN1 locus confer genome wide risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia (SCZ). Prior work demonstrated that heterozygous NRXN1 deletions decreases synaptic strength and neurotransmitter release probability in human-iPSC derived cortical glutamatergic induced neurons and this synaptic phenotype is replicated in SCZ patient iPSCs with varying NRXN1 genomic del...
