EditorialOpen accessEvery word in the titleGc Protein-Derived Macrophage Activating Factor (GcMAF) and Autism: Do Clinical Results Require a Novel Interpretation?Marco RuggieroIn this Editorial I reinterpret the results observed with the Gc protein-derived Macrophage Activating Factor (GcMAF) at the light of two recent papers published on this topic. According to the results and the hypothesis emerging from these papers, the biological and clinical effects thus far attributed to GcMAF are indeed to be ascribed to a glycosaminoglycan, chondroitin sulfate, that binds … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 14 Oct 2016 · 10,339 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvidence of Oxidative Stress in Autism Derived from Animal ModelsXue Ming, Michelle A. Cheh, Carrie L. Yochum et al.Autism is a pervasive neurodevelopmental disorder that leads to deficits in social interaction, communication and restricted, repetitive motor movements. Autism is a highly heritable disorder, however, there is mounting evidence to suggest that toxicant-induced oxidative stress may play a role. The focus of this article will be to review our animal model of autism and discuss our evidence that oxidative … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvidence of Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Autism and Implications for TreatmentDaniel A. Rossignol, J. Jeffrey BradstreetClassical mitochondrial diseases occur in a subset of individuals with autism and are usually caused by genetic anomalies or mitochondrial respiratory pathway deficits. However, in many cases of autism, there is evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction (MtD) without the classic features associated with mitochondrial disease. MtD appears to be more common in autism and presents with less severe signs and symptoms. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 16,373 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMitochondrial Energy-Deficient Endophenotype in AutismJ. Jay Gargus, Faiqa ImtiazWhile evidence points to a multigenic etiology of most autism, the pathophysiology of the disorder has yet to be defined and the underlying genes and biochemical pathways they subserve remain unknown. Autism is considered to be influenced by a combination of various genetic, environmental and immunological factors; more recently, evidence has suggested that increased vulnerability to oxidative stress may be … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 11,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBridging from Cells to Cognition in Autism Pathophysiology: Biological Pathways to Defective Brain Function and PlasticityMatthew P. Anderson, Brian S. Hooker, Martha R. HerbertWe review evidence to support a model where the disease process underlying autism may begin when an in utero or early postnatal environmental, infectious, seizure, or autoimmune insult triggers an immune response that increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the brain that leads to DNA damage (nuclear and mitochondrial) and metabolic enzyme blockade and that these inflammatory and oxidative … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 17,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Rodent Model of Autism: Intraventricular Infusions of Propionic Acid Increase Locomotor Activity and Induce Neuroinflammation and Oxidative Stress in Discrete Regions of Adult Rat BrainDerrick F. MacFabe, Karina Rodríguez-Capote, Jennifer E. Hoffman et al.Innate neuroinflammatory changes, increased oxidative stress and disorders of glutathione metabolism may be involved in the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Propionic acid (PPA) is a dietary and gut bacterial short chain fatty acid which can produce brain and behavioral changes reminiscent of ASD following intraventricular infusion in rats. Adult Long-Evans rats were given intraventricular infusions of either PPA … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 12,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRed-Cell Trace Minerals in Children with AutismJoan Jory, Woody R. McGinnisAbnormalities in mineral-dependent antioxidant enzymes in children with autism raise interest in the determination of trace mineral status in this population. A cross sectional investigation of red cell mineral levels was carried out among 20 children with autism and 15 controls. Children with autism demonstrated significantly lower red cell selenium (p<0.0006) and higher molybdenum (p<0.01) than the controls. There was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOxidative Stress in Autism: Elevated Cerebellar 3-nitrotyrosine LevelsElizabeth M. Sajdel-Sulkowska, Boguslaw Lipinski, Herb Windom et al.It has been suggested that oxidative stress and/or mercury compounds play an important role in the pathophysiology of autism. This study compared for the first time the cerebellar levels of the oxidative stress marker 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), mercury (Hg) and the antioxidant selenium (Se) levels between control and autistic subjects. Tissue homogenates were prepared in the presence of protease inhibitors from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 17,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Coding Schema-Based Mobile System for Children With ASD in MauritaniaCheikhne Mohamed Mahmoud Seyidi, Ahmed Mohameden, Mohamed Lamine Diakité, Mohamedade Farouk NanneChildren with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) in many African countries face persistent barriers, including limited diagnostic awareness, scarce specialized resources, and the absence of educational interventions adapted to local contexts. In Mauritania, these challenges are exacerbated by the extreme centralization of autism services, with only two care centers available nationwide. Unlike existing ASD interventions that rely on imported pedagogical models … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 5 · 25 May 2026 · 1,312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Learning Mechanism to Improve Skills Acquisition for Autistic Children in MauritaniaCheikhne Mohamed Mahmoud Seyidi, Cheikhane Seyed, Mohamed El Moustapha El Arby et al.The learning of autistic children is an issue for care and treatment centers for children with autism spectrum disorder, however many studies seek to find learning mechanisms and models in order to facilitate their social integration. The aim of this study is to propose a learning mechanism based on the analysis and annotation of a corpus video filmed during the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 9 · 23 Aug 2023 · 5,618 accessesView PDFCite
