Puberty-Driven Gene Expression Shifts in Autism
This research explores how puberty influences gene expression in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), with a focus on the roles of steroid hormones and immune pathways. Using RNA-seq expression data (GSE221645) from whole blood samples, the study compares ASD children to their unaffected siblings both before and after puberty.
