Clinical research: Language disorder distinct from autism
The families of children with specific language impairment do not have a
history of autism, according to a study published 28 August in Genes, Brain
and Behavior. The results bolster the theory that the two disorders have
independent risk factors.

Molecular mechanisms: Brain antibodies alter mouse behavior
Rare antibodies taken from mothers of children with autism lead to
developmental delay and anxiety in mouse pups, according to a study
published 27 August in theJourn al of Neuro im m un ology .

TOOLBOX
Stem cells reveal genes that have parental bias
Researchers have used stem cells to identify 801 neuronal genes that are
preferentially expressed from either the maternal or paternal chromosome,
according to a study published 30 August in PLoS One. Of these genes, 26 are
linked to autism and 48 to schizophrenia.

Late arrival
Girls with Asperger syndrome are diagnosed, on average, two years later than
boys, and the delay is even worse among adults with classic autism, according
to a large study in the Netherlands published 22 September in theJourn al ofAu tism an d Dev elop m enta l Disord ers .

Sandy's wrath
Flooding from Hurricane Sandy has destroyed a major rodent colony at New
York University. But most of the strains are also housed elsewhere, so
researchers should be able to rebuild their collections.

Social spontaneity
People with autism don't look at others' eyes or mimic their actions in
everyday life, but they can do these things when asked to, according a review
published 7 September inBrain an d Dev elop m ent.
