Brain region linked to altered social interactions in autism model
The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) plays a critical role in regulating social behaviors. In mouse models of ASD, dysfunction in the ACC was linked to social impairments associated with the disorder.
Autism Associated with Zinc Deficiency in Early Development
Research shows how zinc shapes the connections or 'synapses' between brain cells that form during early development, via a complex molecular machinery encoded by autism risk genes.
The research is in Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience. (full open access)
Zinc May Help Reverse Brain Changes in Autism
