Transient CSF1R inhibition ameliorates behavioral deficits in Cntnap2 knockout and valproic acid-exposed mouse models of autism

Abstract Microglial abnormality and heterogeneity are observed in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) patients and animal models of ASD. Microglial depletion by colony stimulating factor 1-receptor (CSF1R) inhibition has been proved to improve autism-like behaviors in maternal immune activation mouse off...
