PY - 2015 DA - 2015/11/14 TI - A neuroligin-3 mutation implicated in autism causes abnormal aggression and increases repetitive behavior in mice JO - Molecular Autism SP - 62 VL - 6 IS - 1 AB - Aggression is common in patients with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) along with the core symptoms of impairments in social communication and repetitive behavior. Risperidone, an atypical antipsychotic, is widely used to treat aggression in ASD. In order to understand the neurobiological underpinnings of these challenging behaviors, a thorough characterisation of behavioral endophenotypes in animal models is required.
