Dysfunctional cerebellar Purkinje cells contribute to autism-like behaviour in Shank2-deficient mice

Dysfunctional cerebellar Purkinje cells contribute to autism-like behaviour in Shank2-deficient mice

Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the postsynaptic scaffolding protein SHANK2 are a highly penetrant cause of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) involving cerebellum-related motor problems. Recent studies have implicated cerebellar pathology in the aetiology of ASD. Here we evaluate the p...
