Exploring The Link Between Autism And Genetics: What We Know So Far
Assessing other family members for ASD typically involves a combination of genetic counselling, medical evaluation, and behavioural screening.

Did you know genetic testing can help in planning an effective fitness regime and diet? Here's all you need to know about this advanced preventive healthcare tool.
Schizophrenia is characterised by delusions, hallucinations and disorganised thoughts and behaviour. The condition is currently treated with antipsychotic drugs, but this therapy is given without guidance from lab tests to show effectiveness.
When an individual develops a neurodevelopment disorder like autism, the severity of that disorder depends on genetic changes beyond a single supposedly disease-causing mutation.
Among all kinds of cancers, World Health Organization (WHO) claims that lung cancers are the biggest killers.
It is a chronic neurological disorder that affects the brain's ability to control sleep.
Individuals who are obese and suffering from atrial fibrillation may be able to reverse the effects of the heart condition by losing weight.
The study, published in the journal Menopause, revealed that genetic associations on body mass index (BMI) were strongest in sedentary postmenopausal women
In the study, published in the journal Cell Metabolism, the team have examined a small group with obesity caused by pathogenic mutations in the so-called MC4R gene and those with obesity without the mutations.
All you need to know about Keratosis Pilaris, a skin condition.
A discovery sheds new light on our understanding of the genetic complexity underpinning variations in human pigmentation.
Genes involved in senescence, the 'frozen' state that cells enter into after being damaged, played an important role in longevity.
Equal treatment, not sympathy is what people with Albinism need.
Scientists at the University of Southampton analysed the impact of the gene ADAM33, which is associated with the development of asthma.
Confirming a long-standing hypothesis, scientists from the Netherlands' Leiden University have shown that the genetic information in the DNA not only determines who we are, but also the DNA mechanics.
Scientists in Brazil invent new way of dealing with Zika virus, inject plants with bacteria to cause genetic modification in mosquitoes.
Scientists have shown that a hormone instrumental in the ageing process is under genetic control, introducing a new mechanism by which genetics regulate ageing and disease.
