Blood lipid levels may change in some people with autism

1 Dec 1399
About 7% of people with autism in the United States have abnormal levels of lipids in their blood, a compound called lipids, according to a study published in Nature Medicine.
Previous studies have shown an association between this metabolic condition called dyslipidemia and autism in people with rare genetic conditions.
"This is the first in-depth, multidimensional analysis that makes a broader connection to autism," said Yuan Lu, an associate professor of preventive medicine at Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois.
This study uses a comprehensive approach, including health care, electronic health records, family gene sequences, and an atlas of growth gene patterns.
"Studies show that parents with a history of hyperlipidemia are up to 16 percent more likely to have it," says Lou
Having children with autism is a result that researchers hope to study further in future studies.
"However, it is not yet clear how fats affect the human brain," says Professor Michael Schneider.
More research into lipid-level manipulation - by destroying dyslipidemia-related genes in mice or using medication - may provide a clearer understanding of this.

How exercise helps people with autism: "Sensory perception is an extra burden for people with autism and causes them to engage in behaviors that upset them," says Dr. O'Connor, a professor of physical education. They do not have a social. John O'Connor, a professor of physical education at Montana State University, explains why. Swimming and running involve rhythmic movements that are similar to stereotyped behaviors that people with autism may be distracted by clapping their hands and walking on their toes in the same way. Researchers have learned how exercise can reduce repetitive behaviors, but this knowledge is often marginalized.
