Postnatal Sensory Experience and Barrel Cortex Alterations Anticipate Autistic Traits in a Mouse Model of Cdkl5 Deficiency Disorder

Alessandra Raspanti, Riccardo Pizzo, Antonia Gurgone, Cecilia Giraudo, Giulia Sagona, Andrea Macioce, Anthony Battaglia, Lamprini Katsanou, Debora Comai, Giorgio Medici, Francesco Ferrini, Tommaso Pizzorusso, Elisabetta Ciani, Maurizio Giustetto

This study shows that CDKL5 deficiency in mice leads to sensory processing defects in the barrel cortex and autistic traits, which can be rescued by neonatal CDKL5 replacement.

Candler Paige, Isabel Plasencia-Fernández, Moeno Kume, Melina Papalampropoulou-Tsiridou, Louis-Étienne Lorenzo, Eric T. David, Lucy He, Galo L. Mejia, Christopher M. Driskill, Francesco Ferrini, Andrew L. Feldhaus, Leon F. Garcia-Martinez, Armen N. Akopian, Yves De Koninck, Gregory Dussor, Theodore J. Price

This study investigates the sex-specific role of CGRP in pain models, finding that CGRP promotes pain plasticity in female mice but has limited impact in males.
