Animal models are instrumental to understanding the mechanisms underlying autism spectrum disorder, yet translating human behavioral phenotypes remains challenging. Wang et al. leverage a conserved sensorimotor reflex to elucidate synaptic deficits in Scn2a haploinsufficiency and pilot novel rescue strategies.
动物模型有助于理解自闭症谱系障碍背后的机制,但将人类行为表型进行转化仍然具有挑战性。王等人利用一种保守的感觉运动反射来阐明Scn2a单倍体不足中的突触缺陷,并试验新的挽救策略。
