Discover a biomarker to reduce social skills in people with autism spectrum disorders

7 Jul 2020
A study by the National Research Center of California and Stanford University shows that vasopressin concentrations can be a biological indicator of decreased social skills in people with autism spectrum disorders.
 
Professor Karen Parker of Stanford School of Medicine and Behavioral Sciences, the project's lead researcher, examined the cause of impaired social skills in people with autism by examining the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in monkeys. Compared to the group that had limited social behavior and was considered so-called autistic, it was much higher. Other potential symptoms, such as oxytocin levels, were not significantly different.
