Abstract:
The aetiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), a group of neurodevelopmental conditions with early onset, characterized by social and communication impairment and restricted interests, is unknown in about a third of the patients. The intense research done over the past decade has revealed a genetic contribution, while the epigenetic contribution barely begins to show. The epigenetic marks can exert an effect in gene expression without altering the underlying genetic sequence. In turn, these marks can be impaired by genetic mutations in their target sequence. Therefore, research in genomic,

Abstract:
Introduction: Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are a heterogeneous class of conditions involving the brain, including intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), that affect about 1%-3% of children (Miller et al., 2010). The genetics of NDDs is complex and include copy number variations (CNVs), pathogenetic mutations in single genes. To date, more than 1000 genes have been implicated in the etiopathogenesis of NNDs. Preliminary investigations have suggested that the majority of Developmental Disorders, in particular ASD, are actually polygenic; in addition, the

Second, if atypical attention plays a role in social impairments in ASD, what is the mechanism?
