Altered Forebrain Functional Connectivity and Neurotransmission in a Kinase-Inactive Mouse Model of Autism

MET , the gene encoding the tyrosine kinase receptor for hepatocyte growth factor, is a susceptibility gene for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Genetically altered mice with a kinase-inactive Met offer a potential model for understanding neural circuit organization changes in autism. Here, we focus...
