One of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders, autism is recognized as heterogeneous in etiology, phenotype, behavioral trajectory and response to treatment. While the etiology and specific pathogenetic mechanisms underlying autism are unknown, those mechanisms which underlie a small subset of etiologically-defined neurodevelopmental disorders （e.g., Fragile X Syndrome, tuberous sclerosis）, that are associated with autism and autistic behaviors, have been well described.展开更多
