So it's certainly a daunting challenge to begin teasing out the individual genes that may contribute to autism, as the UCLA team has with CACNA1G, but databases like AGRE make the job slightly easier. The next step will be to try to use known autism genes to help develop...
For the new study, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), combed the genetic database of the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE), a resource of DNA from 2,000 families with at least one autistic child. The scientists focused on the more than 1,000 genetic samples of...
Muniz, her ex and her children are among the 2,025 families who volunteered to be genetically tested for a vast registry called the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE), assembled to help researchers untangle the complex genetics of autism. Now that effort is beginning to pay off. The largest genetic...
What's exciting to researchers is that the confusing array of genes associated with autism are beginning to make some kind of sense. "We are starting to get convergence around genes that affect how synapses and connections in the brain are made and maintained ... particularly in the frontal lobe" says...
Seventy-five percent of the year’s inductees attended the ceremony which also honored Peter Agre, the 2003 Noble Prize in Chemistry recipient, poet Robert Creeley, recording industry innovator Ray Dolby and Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Operatic baritone Sherrill Milnes performed for his fellow inductees at the...
