Deletion of Mex3c gene leads to autistic-like behavior in mice by inhibiting AMPK signal pathway by Hui Cai, Chengping Zhang, Haonan Zhang, Yong Du, Yong Du, Kai Wang

“…IntroductionAutism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a hereditary neurodevelopmental condition influenced by genetic alterations, particularly in genes regulating neural development and synaptic plasticity. Emerging evidence suggests that the Mex3c gene plays a role in energy metabolism and neuronal development, indicating its potential relevance to ASD pathogenesis.MethodsTo investigate the role of Mex3c in ASD, we generated Mex3c knockout (KO) mice and conducted a series of behavioral tests, histological analyses, and molecular assays. …”
