RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Disco-interacting protein 2 C (DIP2C) has recently been reported as a new susceptibility gene for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in a genome-wide association study. METHODS: We evaluated associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of DIP2C and ASD susceptibility in a case-control study (715 ASD cases and 728 controls) from Chinese Han. RESULTS: We identified a significant association between SNPs (rs3740304, rs2288681, rs7088729, rs4242757, rs10795060, and rs10904083) and ASD susceptibility. Of note, rs3740304, rs2288681, and rs7088729 are positively associated with ASD under inheritance models; moreover, haplotypes with any two marker SNPs (rs3740304 [G], rs2288681 [C], rs7088729 [T], rs4242757 [C], rs10795060 [G], and rs10904083 [A]) are also significantly associated with ASD. Additionally, rs10795060 and rs10904083 are associated with "visual reaction" phenotypes of ASD. CONCLUSIONS: DIP2C polymorphisms sort out the susceptibility and clinical phenotypes of autism spectrum disorder.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) represents a group of childhood-onset lifelong neuro-developmental disorders. However, the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the deleted in colorectal carcinoma (DCC) gene and ASD susceptibility remains unclear. We investigated the association between ASD susceptibility and seven SNPs in DCC on the basis of a case-control study (231 ASD cases and 242 controls) in Chinese Han. We found that there was no association between ASD susceptibility and the seven SNPs in DCC; however, T-A haplotype (rs2229082-rs2270954), T-A-T-C haplotype (rs2229082-rs2270954-rs2292043-rs2292044), C-G-T-C-T haplotype (rs934345-rs17753970-rs2229082-rs2270954-rs2292043), C-G-T-C-T-G haplotype (rs934345-rs17753970-rs2229082-rs2270954-rs2292043-rs2292044), and G-G-T-C-C-C-C haplotype (rs934345-rs17753970-rs2229082-rs2270954-rs2292043-rs2292044-rs16956878) were associated with ASD susceptibility. Our results indicate that the haplotypes formed on the basis of the seven SNPs in DCC may be implicated in ASD.

There has been an increased prevalence of the diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) globally during the last decade. An updated and overall estimate of ASD prevalence in Asia would assist health professionals to develop relevant public health strategies. We performed a systematic review by searching English databases (Medline, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochran Library) from inception date to August 6, 2018. Subgroup, sensitivity, and meta-regression analyses were performed to address heterogeneity. Publication bias was evaluated using Egger's test. A total of 2,195,497 subjects in Asia from 12 eligible studies were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled estimate of ASD prevalence among the included subjects was 0.36% (95% CI: 0.16-0.79%). The pooled ASD prevalence in males (0.45%, 95% CI: 0.19-1.04%) was higher than that in females (0.18%, 95% CI: 0.079-0.49%). ASD prevalence in East Asia, South Asia, and West Asia was 0.51% (95% CI: 0.06-4.22%), 0.31% (95% CI: 0.14-0.65%), and 0.35% (95% CI: 0.07-1.80%) respectively. The prevalence of ASD is increasing in Asia. Universal and standardized diagnostic processes for ASD should be adopted for the prevention and control programs of ASD in future.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a serious lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder. ASD is diagnosed for children at the age of two. ASD diagnosis, as early as possible, lays the foundation for treatment and much better prognosis. Notably, gene-based test is an inherent method to recognize the potential infants with ASD before the age of two. To investigate whether SHANK family contributes to ASD prediction, on the basis of our previous studies of SHANK2 and SHANK3, we further investigated associations between SHANK1 polymorphisms and ASD risk as well as SNP-SNP interactions among SHANK family. We enrolled 470 subjects (229 cases and 241 healthy controls) who were northeast Chinese Han. Four tag SNPs (rs73042561, rs3745521, rs4801846, and rs12461427) of SHANK1 were selected and genotyped. We used the SNPStats online analysis program to assess the associations between the four SNPs and ASD risk. The SNP-SNP interactions among SHANK family were analyzed using multifactor dimensionality reduction method. We found that the four SHANK1 SNPs were not associated with ASD risk in northeast Chinese Han population. There existed a strong synergistic interaction between rs11236697 [SHANK2] and rs74336682 [SHANK2], and moderate synergistic interactions (rs74336682 [SHANK2]-rs73042561 [SHANK1], rs11236697 [SHANK2]-rs77716438 [SHANK2], and rs11236697 [SHANK2]-rs75357229 [SHANK2]). These SHANK1 variants may not affect the susceptibility to ASD in Chinese Han population. SNP-SNP interactions in SHANK family may confer ASD risk.

LAY SUMMARY: ASD is a serious lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder with strong genetic components. We investigated associations between SHANK1 polymorphisms and ASD risk as well as SNP-SNP interactions among SHANK family. Our results indicated that there exists no association between SHANK1 SNPs and ASD, and SNP-SNP interactions in SHANK family may confer ASD risk in the Northeast Han Chinese population. Future studies are needed to test more SHANK family SNPs in a large sample to demonstrate the associations.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as one of early-onset neurodevelopmental disorders, is characterized by the following symptoms, including repetitive and stereotyped behaviors, impairments in social interaction, and dysfunctions in communication. ASD afflicts â¼1.5% of children aged 8 years in America and â¼4.5 of children aged 0-6 years in China. Existing studies suggest that SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains protein 2 (SHANK2) is implicated in ASD. However, associations between SNPs in SHANK2 introns and ASD risk have been less investigated. In this study, on the basis of case-control study (226 cases and 239 controls), we selected nine SNPs (rs76717360, rs11236697, rs74336682, rs77950809, rs17428526, rs35459123, rs75357229, rs61887413, and rs77716438) in SHANK2 introns to investigate genetic associations between SHANK2 polymorphisms and susceptibility to ASD using improved multiple ligase detection reaction (iMLDR). We identified that the polymorphism of rs76717360 was associated with risk of ASD in Chinese population; the haplotype of rs11236697 C (T) or rs74336682 G (A) increased ASD risk; and haplotypes with ≥ five SNPs containing rs11236697 and rs74336682 were associated with risk of ASD. Our results indicate SHANK2 is a susceptibility gene for ASD in Chinese children. © 2018 IUBMB Life, 70(8):763-776, 2018.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as one of neurodevelopmental disorders, affects about 1/160 of people worldwide. The etiology and pathogenesis of ASD remain elusive. Synapses are essential components of neurons and basic information transmission unit in the nervous system, adjusting behavior to environmental stimuli and controlling body functions, memories, and emotions. SHANK3 is one of the synapse genes which play important roles in maintaining synaptic structure and function. SHANK3 has been researched as a probably susceptibility gene for ASD. We investigated the association between polymorphisms in SHANK3 and ASD in the Northeast Han Chinese population. A total of 470 subjects (229 cases and 241 controls) were enrolled in our case-control study. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs756638, rs4824116, rs76268556, rs9616915, and rs75767639) in SHANK3 were selected and genotyped. Our study did not identify a significant association of SHANK3 SNPs with ASD in the Northeast Han Chinese population. Future studies need to test more SHANK3 SNPs in large sample to demonstrate the association between SNPs in SHANK3 and ASD.

Five feeding trials based on the isonitrogenous and isoenergetic experimental diets containing 34% protein, 6%, 8%, 10%, 12% or 14% lipid respectively in the circulating water culture system for both 30 and 60 days were conducted to investigate the effect of the dietary lipid level on the growth and immunity in white shirmp, Litopenaeus vannamei adults. The body weight and specific growth rate of white shrimp in different treatments indicated that shrimps fed the diet of 12% lipid level for 30d and 10% lipid level for 60d had the best developmental status. The ability of respiratory burst in hemocytes was improved as the increase of dietary lipid level. The transcripts of LGBP and pPO were sensitive to the dietary lipid in hemocyte and hepatopancreas respectively. The activities of CAT, GPx and AKP were increased to a certain extend according to dietary lipid level. Qualification of MDA showed the lowest level in the sample subjected to 12% lipid level diet, indicating an optimal utilization of the dietary lipid and an efficient clearance of MDA in vivo. These results suggested that dietary lipid level of 10-12% significantly tunes the growth and enhance the immune abilities mainly via ROS pathway of L. vannamei.

The present experiment was conducted to determine proteome changes in Longissimus muscle of finishing pigs fed conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), in association with alteration of intramuscular fat content. Previously, seventy-two Duroc × Landrace × Large White gilts (approximately 60 kg) had been fed maizesoyabean meal-based diets with 0, 12·5 and 25 g CLA/kg diet. The CLA contained 369·1 mg/g cis-9, trans-11 CLA, 374·6 mg/g trans-10, cis-12 CLA and 53·7 mg/g other isomers. Six pigs per treatment were slaughtered when they reached a body weight of approximately 100 kg. Data published from a previous experiment demonstrated that supplementation with 12·5 or 25 g CLA/kg diet increased intramuscular fat content (P < 0·05). The present study investigated the proteome changes in Longissimus muscle of control and pigs supplemented with 25 g CLA/kg diet. CLA significantly influenced the abundance of proteins related to energy metabolism, fatty acid oxidation and synthesis, amino acid metabolism, defence, transport and other miscellaneous processes (P < 0·05). The increase in intramuscular fat content was positively correlated with the increased abundance of carbonic anhydrase 3 and aspartate aminotransferase (P < 0·05). We suggest that the proteome changes in Longissimus muscle contributed to greater intramuscular lipid content in CLA-supplemented pigs.
