ABSTRACT
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of complex neurodevelopmental disorders with abnormal behavior. However, the pathogenesis of ASD remains to be clarified. It has been demonstrated that miRNAs are essential regulators of ASD. However, it is still unclear how miR-92a-2-5p acts on the developing brain and the cell types directly. In this study, we used neural progenitor cells (NPCs) derived from ASD-hiPSCs as well as from neurotypical controls to examine the effects of miR-92a-2-5p on ASD-NPCs proliferation and neuronal differentiation, and whether miR-92a-2-5p could interact with genetic risk factor, DLG3 for ASD. We observed that miR-92a-2-5p upregulated in ASD-NPCs results in decreased proliferation and neuronal differentiation. Inhibition of miR-92a-2-5p could promote proliferation and neuronal differentiation of ASD-NPCs. DLG3 was negatively regulated by miR-92a-2-5p in NPCs. Our results suggest that miR-92a-2-5p is a strong risk factor for ASD and potentially contributes to neuropsychiatric disorders.
