  • Publication number: 20240366539
    Abstract: Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are neurodevelopmental disorders whose diagnosis relies on deficient social interaction and communication together with repetitive behavior. To date, no pharmacological treatment has been approved that ameliorates social behavior in patients with ASD. Based on the excitation/inhibition imbalance theory of autism, the Inventors hypothesized that bromide ions, long used as an antiepileptic medication, could relieve core symptoms of ASD. They evaluated the effects of chronic sodium bromide (NaBr) administration on autistic-like symptoms in three genetic mouse models of autism: Oprm1?/?, Fmr1?/? and Shank3?ex13-16?/? mice. They showed that chronic NaBr treatment relieved autistic-like behaviors in these three models. In Oprm1?/? mice, these beneficial effects were superior to those of chronic bumetanide administration.
