TL;DR: The 16p11.2 deletion impacts in a quantitative and independent manner FSIQ, behaviour and body mass index, possibly through direct influences on neural circuitry, and these features are clinically significant and reproducible.

Associations between Familial Rates of Psychiatric Disorders and De Novo Genetic Mutations in Autism
Kyleen Luhrs,Tracey Ward,Caitlin M. Hudac,Jennifer Gerdts,Holly A.F. Stessman,Holly A.F. Stessman,Evan E. Eichler,Evan E. Eichler,Raphael Bernier +8 more
TL;DR: Results indicated overall increased rates of psychiatric disorders in DUP families compared to DEL and LGDM families, specific to paternal psychiatric histories, and particularly evident for depressive disorders.
Epigenetics of Autism-related Impairment: Copy Number Variation and Maternal Infection
Varvara Mazina,Jennifer Gerdts,Sandy Trinh,Katy Ankenman,Tracey Ward,Megan Y. Dennis,Santhosh Girirajan,Evan E. Eichler,Raphael Bernier +8 more
TL;DR: The findings support a gene-environment interaction model of autism impairment, in that individuals with ASD-associated CNVs are more susceptible to the effects of maternal infection and febrile episodes in pregnancy on behavioral outcomes and suggest that these effects are specific to ASD rather than to global neurodevelopment.
Selective PPAR-Delta/PPAR-Gamma Activation Improves Cognition in a Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Ian Steinke,Manoj Govindarajulu,Priyanka D. Pinky,Jenna Bloemer,Si Yoon Yoo,Tracey Ward,Fajar Setyo Wibowo,Vishnu Suppiramaniam,Rajesh Amin +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a novel series of peroxisomal proliferator activating receptors (PPAR)-delta and PPAR-gamma agonists was developed in silico with AU9 as the lead compound that displays selective amino acid interactions focused upon avoiding the Tyr-473 epitope in the PPARγ binding domain.
Sleep Problems in Children with ASD and Gene Disrupting Mutations.
