The paper conducts a genetic analysis of immune biomarkers across pregnancy timepoints, identifying heritable and genome-wide significant associations and highlighting timepoint-specific and pregnancy-unique findings.

This paper identifies 35 genome-wide significant ASD risk genes in admixed Latin American populations, showing consistency with European cohorts and supporting the universality of ASD biology.

The paper identifies DNA methylation at ZNF300 associated with fetal sex and placental morphology using whole genome bisulfite sequencing and multiple datasets.

The paper identifies DNA methylation differences in cord blood samples from newborns later diagnosed with ASD, revealing sex-specific epigenomic signatures linked to neurodevelopmental and X-linked genes.

This study identifies ASD-specific transcriptional changes in umbilical cord blood through a meta-analysis of two high-risk cohorts, highlighting environmental, immune, and epigenetic factors.

This paper presents the largest case-control epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using blood DNA methylation data, finding no significant CpG sites but suggestive associations and concordance with brain samples.

The paper integrates genetic and epigenetic data to identify ASD-associated SNPs enriched in tissue-specific meQTLs and reveals immune-related pathways and psychiatric condition links.
