Characterization of a C9orf72 Knockout Danio rerio model for ALS and cross-species validation of potential therapeutics screened in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Alexandre Emond, Carl Laflamme, Martine Therrien…·J. Alex Parker

The paper develops a zebrafish C9orf72 knockout model for ALS, identifies pizotifen malate as a potential therapeutic, and validates its efficacy in both zebrafish and C. elegans models.

Transient Early Postnatal Neuronal Hyperexcitation Results in Lasting Social Preference Deficits

Haleigh Bach, Mikael Nakamura-Vernet, Kevin Lançon…·Jean-Francois Poulin

This study shows that inducing hyperexcitation in neonatal mice leads to long-term social behavior deficits and increased interneuron density, linking E/I imbalance to ASD-like symptoms.
