Scientists at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), School of Medicine used human brain organoids to reveal how a genetic mutation associated with a profound form of autism disrupts neural development. Using gene therapy tools to recover the gene’s function effectively rescued neural structure and function. Their study is published in Nature Communications, in a paper titled, “Transcription Factor 4 loss-of-function is associated with deficits in progenitor [...]
