Altered kinship vocal dynamics in marmosets with valproic acid-induced model of autism

This study examines altered kinship vocal dynamics in marmosets with valproic acid-induced autism-like traits, finding changes in vocal patterns linked to caregiver stress and social communication impairments.

Hyperactivity is linked to elevated cortisol levels: comprehensive behavioral analysis in the prenatal valproic acid-induced marmoset model of autism

This study analyzes hyperactivity and cortisol levels in a prenatal VPA-induced marmoset model of ASD, finding elevated cortisol and erratic activity patterns linked to stress phenotypes.

Diverse Configurations of Erroneous Predictive Coding Across Brain Hierarchies in a Non-Human Primate Model of Autism Spectrum Disorder

This study examines predictive coding irregularities in a non-human primate ASD model, finding sensory hypersensitivity and unstable predictions across brain hierarchies with diverse error configurations.

Altered projection-specific synaptic remodeling and its modification by oxytocin in an idiopathic autism marmoset model

This study investigates altered synaptic remodeling in an ASD marmoset model and shows oxytocin reduces clustered spine emergence.

Prenatal valproic acid-induced autism marmoset model exhibits higher salivary cortisol levels

This study shows that prenatal valproic acid exposure in marmosets leads to higher morning salivary cortisol levels, similar to ASD in humans.

Reduced childhood social attention in an autism model marmoset predicts impaired social skills and inflexible behavior in adulthood

Distinct synaptic and related transcriptional abnormalities in neonatal, childhood and mature autism model of primate: implications for early-age therapeutic intervention

This study identifies distinct synaptic and gene expression abnormalities in primate ASD models across developmental stages, suggesting potential targets for early therapeutic intervention.
