Scientists identify defect in brain cell channel that may cause autism-like syndrome
Via fuckyeah, neuroscience.
jfs1:
Channelopathy of calcium ion channels induces changes in neural firing, neurotransmitter (dopamine & norepinephrine) over-production, neuron proliferation, and gene expression. The results come from a study using neurons grown from Timothy-syndrome induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) - modeling a psychiatric disease in a Petri dish.
