ASD modelling in organoids reveals imbalance of excitatory cortical neuron subtypes during early neurogenesis
Preprints

There is no clear genetic etiology or convergent pathophysiology for autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Using induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived brain organoids and single-cell transcriptomics, we modeled alterations in the formation of the forebrain between sons with ASD and their unaffected fathers in ten families. Relative to fathers, probands with macrocephaly presented an increase in dorsal cortical plate excitatory neurons (EN-DCP) to the detriment of preplate lineages, whereas normocephalic ASD probands presented an opposite decrease in EN-DCP-related gene expression. Both cohorts converged in a dysregulation of outer radial glia genes related to translation.

Discovery of an 'Eat-Me' signal involved in synaptic pruning and maturation of new neurons in the adult brain
The Rockefeller University Press

A research group led by Kazunobu Sawamoto, a professor at Nagoya City University and National Institute for Physiological Sciences, and Chihiro Kurematsu, a student at Nagoya City University School of Medicine, has elucidated the mechanism that controls synaptic pruning of new neurons in the adult brain. These findings are expected to be useful in the study of neurological diseases with abnormalities in microglia and synapses, such as autism spectrum disorders (ASDs).

New federal grant to advance research on blood stem cell regeneration
Iowa State University

Iowa State University scientists are examining a genetic pathway triggered when cells undergo inflammation due to injury or infection that also plays an important role in the development of blood stem cells. The research could lead to the ability to treat blood diseases by regenerating a patient’s blood cells.
