Neurexin gene family variants as risk factors for autism spectrum disorder
Increasing evidence suggests that abnormal synaptic function leads to neuronal developmental disorders and is an important component of the etiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

description | Increasing evidence suggests that abnormal synaptic function leads to neuronal developmental disorders and is an important component of the etiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Neurexins are presynaptic cell‐adhesion molecules that affect the function of synapses and mediate the conduction of nerve signals. Thus, neurexins are attractive candidate genes for autism. Since gene families have greater power to reveal genetic association than single genes, we designed this case‐control study to investigate six genetic variants in three neurexin genes (NRXN1, NRXN2, and NRXN3) in a Chinese population including 529 ASD patients and 1,923 healthy controls. We found that two SNPs were significantly associated with ASD after false discovery rate (FDR) adjustment for multiple comparisons. The NRXN2 rs12273892 polymorphism T allele and AT genotype were significantly associated with increased risk of ASD (respectively: OR = 1.328, 95% CI = 1.133–1.557, P |

Lay Summary
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is highly heritable, and studies have found a number of candidate genes that might contribute to ASD. Neurexins are presynaptic cell‐adhesion molecules that affect the function of synapses and mediate the conduction of nerve signals, and they play an important role in normal brain development and become candidate genes for autism. The purpose of our study is to explore the association between variants of the neurexins gene family and ASD in a Chinese population through a case‐control study.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1939-3792</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1939-3806</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1002/aur.1881</identifier><identifier>PMID: 29045040</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Wiley Subscription Services, Inc</publisher><subject>Alleles ; Autism ; autism spectrum disorder ; Autism Spectrum Disorder - genetics ; Brain ; Case-Control Studies ; Cell adhesion molecules ; Cell Adhesion Molecules, Neuronal - genetics ; Child ; China ; Chinese ; Etiology ; Female ; Gene families ; gene family ; Genes ; Genetic diversity ; Genetic Predisposition to Disease - genetics ; Genotype ; Genotypes ; Humans ; Male ; Middle Aged ; Nerve Tissue Proteins - genetics ; Neuregulins - genetics ; neurexins ; Neurodevelopmental disorders ; Polymorphism ; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide - genetics ; Population studies ; Risk analysis ; Risk Factors ; Single-nucleotide polymorphism ; Synapses</subject><ispartof>Autism research, 2018-01, Vol.11 (1), p.37-43</ispartof><rights>2017 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.</rights><rights>2018 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c3491-3b6265ef52d4690f79f64f9fb4c1dcfd023464955801cf3347901de9599f8bda3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c3491-3b6265ef52d4690f79f64f9fb4c1dcfd023464955801cf3347901de9599f8bda3</cites><orcidid>0000-0003-0462-1616 ; 0000-0002-2577-1309 ; 0000-0002-8354-7698</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002%2Faur.1881$$EPDF$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002%2Faur.1881$$EHTML$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,776,780,1411,27901,27902,45550,45551</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29045040$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Wang, Jia</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Gong, Jianhua</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Li, Li</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Chen, Yanlin</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Liu, Lingfei</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Gu, HuaiTing</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Luo, Xiu</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Hou, Fang</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Zhang, Jiajia</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Song, Ranran</creatorcontrib><title>Neurexin gene family variants as risk factors for autism spectrum disorder</title><title>Autism research</title><addtitle>Autism Res</addtitle><description>Increasing evidence suggests that abnormal synaptic function leads to neuronal developmental disorders and is an important component of the etiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
