Poster summary
- Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by stereotyped behavior and poor social interaction. There are approximately 52 million people worldwide who suffer from this disease. Candidate genes associated with ASD are CHD8, SHANK3, SLC6A4, RELN, DISC1, and ITGB3. It is known that a number of prenatal risk factors increase the chances of developing autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders in children. Some genetic mutations and modifications may serve as useful biological markers, risk indicators, and therapeutic targets for diseases because of recent technological advances. To understand disease development better, more studies are needed on environmental variables. The clinical evidence supporting ASD's function is limited at present. The prevailing evidence suggests that many new candidate genes for ASD may be associated with its etiology. Therefore, they may be useful in developing an early diagnostic marker.
