Is There a Hemispheric Disconnect in Neurodevelopmental Disorders?
Abstract
The CYFIP1 gene has been linked to autism and schizophrenia and, while there is a noted heterogeneity, both have been characterized to be disorders of connectivity. Recent studies by Dominquez-Iturza et al. and Silva et al. provide direct evidence for CYFIP1 in functional and structural connectivity in the brain.
Keywords: Cyfip1; autism; diffusion tensor imaging; magnetic resonance imaging; mouse; schizophrenia.
