Study Finds Temporary Reversal of Autism-Like Brain Changes in Mice
A study conducted by UCLA Health has found that short-term immunosuppressive therapy using the drug rapamycin can temporarily reverse autism-like brain changes in adult mice. The research indicates that inflammation during pregnancy can lead to autism-like symptoms in offspring, but these effects may be rapidly reversible in adulthood. The study highlights the potential for new therapeutic targets, focusing on brain functional circuitry rather than structural changes, to address autism-associated symptoms.
