Abstract excerpt
Behavioral regression occurs in ∼40% of SHANK3 -associated autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We previously reported that significant behavioral regression in a small cohort with SHANK3 haploinsufficiency patients, triggered by subclinical infections, responded to immunomodulator treatments.
