DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.1067529
Abstract: The development of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) involves both environmental factors such as maternal diabetes and genetic factors such as neuroligins (NLGNs). NLGN2 and NLGN3 are two members of NLGNs with distinct distributions and functions… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnmol.2022.838262
Abstract: The neural cell adhesion protein neuroligin-4 has puzzled neuroscientists and geneticist alike for almost two decades. Its clinical association with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is well established, however, its diversification into sex chromosome-specific copies, NLGN4X… read more here.
