‘Assembloids’ expose autism-linked genes that impede neuron development | Spectrum | Autism Research News
New platform: CRISPR experimentation reveals genes, such as LNPK, that impede the development of interneurons when they are absent from forebrain assembloid models. About 10% of genes strongly linked to autism and other neurodevelopmental conditions interfere with the development of interneurons, according to unpublished findings published on bioRxiv. The study gleaned the effects of genes …
