AUTS2, a causative gene for microcephaly, regulates division of intermediate progenitor cells and production of upper-layer neurons

Kazumi Shimaoka, Kei Hori, Satoshi Miyashita…·Mikio Hoshino

This study identifies AUTS2's role in regulating intermediate progenitor cell division and upper-layer neuron production through interaction with PRC2 and repression of genes like Robo1.

AUTS2 Governs Cerebellar Development, Purkinje Cell Maturation, Motor Function and Social Communication

Kunihiko Yamashiro, Kei Hori, Suk‐King Lai…·Mikio Hoshino

This study investigates the role of AUTS2 in cerebellar development, Purkinje cell maturation, and behavioral functions, finding that its loss leads to cerebellar defects and behavioral impairments linked to ASDs.

AUTS2 regulation of synapses for proper synaptic inputs and social communication.

Kei Hori, Kunihiko Yamashiro, Taku Nagai…·Mikio Hoshino

This study shows that AUTS2 regulates excitatory synapse number to maintain E/I balance, and its loss leads to autistic-like behaviors and increased brain excitability.
