Cureus . 2024 Jan; 15(12):e50586. PMID: 38222203
In the last couple of decades, much progress has been made in studying bacteria living in humans. However, there is much more to learn about bacteria immune cell interactions. Here,...

J Autism Dev Disord . 2018 Jul; 49(1):410-414. PMID: 30047098
Previous research indicates that infection, especially from viruses in the family Herpesviridae, may play a role in the etiology of some cases of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Using a case-control...

Ohlson S, Kaur J, Raida M, Niss U, Bengala T, Drum C, et al.
J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci . 2017 Aug; 1061-1062:438-444. PMID: 28820982
Pre-analytical treatment of blood plasma is a time consuming and often rate limiting step in the workflow of LC/MS analysis. We present in this pilot study a new approach for...

Traglia M, Croen L, Lyall K, Windham G, Kharrazi M, DeLorenze G, et al.
G3 (Bethesda) . 2017 Feb; 7(4):1287-1299. PMID: 28235828
Maternal exposure to environmental pollutants could affect fetal brain development and increase autism spectrum disorder (ASD) risk in conjunction with differential genetic susceptibility. Organohalogen congeners measured in maternal midpregnancy blood...

Torres A, Sweeten T, Johnson R, Odell D, Westover J, Bray-Ward P, et al.
Front Neurosci . 2016 Nov; 10:463. PMID: 27812316
The "common variant-common disease" hypothesis was proposed to explain diseases with strong inheritance. This model suggests that a genetic disease is the result of the combination of several common genetic...

Grether J, Ashwood P, Van de Water J, Yolken R, Anderson M, Torres A, et al.
Front Neurosci . 2016 Jun; 10:218. PMID: 27242422
Background: An etiological role for immune factors operating during early brain development in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has not yet been established. A major obstacle has been the...

Tsang K, Croen L, Torres A, Kharrazi M, DeLorenze G, Windham G, et al.
PLoS One . 2013 Nov; 8(10):e76978. PMID: 24204716
Effects of parental genotype or parent-offspring genetic interaction are well established in model organisms for a variety of traits. However, these transgenerational genetic models are rarely studied in humans. We...

Pediatr Neurol . 2013 Jan; 48(1):36-41. PMID: 23290018
The cause of perinatal arterial ischemic stroke is unknown in most cases. We explored whether genetic polymorphisms modify the risk of perinatal arterial ischemic stroke. In a population-based case-control study...

Autism Res Treat . 2012 Aug; 2012:959073. PMID: 22928105
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes on chromosome 6 are instrumental in many innate and adaptive immune responses. The HLA genes/haplotypes can also be involved in immune dysfunction and autoimmune...

Brain Behav Immun . 2012 Aug; 26(7):1122-7. PMID: 22884899
Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) proteins are expressed on natural killer (NK) cells and appear important in innate and adaptive immunity. There are about 14 KIR genes on chromosome 19q13.4, composed...
