內(nèi)容簡介:
X-linked KIAA2022/KIDLIA gene is a new autism gene. We have successfully created a KIAA2022 knockout mouse model which shows typical autism phenotypes as well as impairments in learning and memory. We find that loss of KIAA2022 results in suppression of dendritic growth, a decrease in spine number, synapse formation and synaptic transmission. We are investigating the underlying molecular mechanisms and also exploring means to rescue the molecular dysregulation and behavioral deficits in KIAA2022/KIDLIA knockout mice with the aim to provide therapeutic tools for clinical management of the disorder.
