Clinical Epigenetics | Abstract | A macroepigenetic approach to identify factors responsible for the autism epidemic in the United States
clinicalepigeneticsjournal.com — “The number of children ages 6 to 21 in the United States receiving special education services under the autism disability category increased 91 % between 2005 to 2010 while the number of children receiving special education services overall declined by 5 %. The demand for special education services continues to rise in disability categories associated with pervasive developmental disorders. Neurodevelopment can be adversely impacted when gene expression is altered by dietary transcription factor” View full resource at clinicalepigeneticsjournal.com

Spontaneous gene glitches linked to autism risk with older dads, April 4, 2012 News Release - National Institutes of Health (NIH)
nih.gov — “Researchers have turned up a new clue to the workings of a possible environmental factor in: fathers were four times more likely than mothers to transmit tiny, spontaneous mutations to their children with the disorders. Moreover, the number of such transmitted genetic glitches increased with paternal age. The discovery may help to explain earlier evidence linking autism risk to older fathers.” View full resource at nih.gov
