Recurrent duplications of the annexin A1 gene (ANXA1) in autism spectrum disorders
Correia, C.T.; Conceição, I.C.; Oliveira, B.; Coelho, J.; Sousa, I.; Sequeira, A.F.; Almeida, J.; Café, C.; Duque, F; Mouga, S.; Roberts, W.; Gao, K.Validating the potential pathogenicity of copy number variants (CNVs) identified in genome-wide studies of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) requires detailed assessment of case/control frequencies, inheritance patterns, clinical correlations, and functional impact. Here, we characterize a small recurrent duplication in the annexin A1 (ANXA1) gene, identified by the Autism Genome Project (AGP) study.
Synaptic Transmission: Looking for Clues to Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) Eti...
Oliveira, B.A.; Correia, C.A.; Conceição, I.C.; Café, C.; Almeida, J.; Mouga, S.; Duque, F.; Oliveira, G.; Vicente, A.M.Copy Number Variants (CNVs) play an important role in susceptibility to ASD, often mediated by the deletion or duplication of genes involved in synaptic structure and function. Increasing evidence suggests a central role for defects in synaptic structure and function in the pathogenesis of non-syndromic ASD. In this study we tested the hypothesis of an enrichment in CNVs encompassing synaptic transmission genes...
A Direct Comparison of Local-Global Integration in Autism and other Development...
Bernardiono, I; Mouga, S; Almeida, J; van Asselen, M; Oliveira, GThe weak central coherence hypothesis represents one of the current explanatory models in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Several experimental paradigms based on hierarchical figures have been used to test this controversial account. We addressed this hypothesis by testing central coherence in ASD (n = 19 with intellectual disability and n = 20 without intellectual disability), Williams syndrome (WS, n = 18), ...
