Activities of key glycolytic enzymes in the plasma of Saudi autistic patients by A El-Ansary, S Al-Daihan, A Al-Dabas, et al

“…A El-Ansary1, S Al-Daihan1, A Al-Dabas1, L Al-Ayadhi21Biochemistry Department, Science College, 2Autism Research and Treatment Unit, Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi ArabiaObjective: Measurement of plasma levels of lactate, lactate oxidase (LOX), pyruvate kinase (PK), and hexokinase (HK) as possible glycolytic parameters to assess brain damage in autistic patients.Design and methods: Plasmatic levels of lactate, LOX, PK, and HK were determined in 20 autistic children aged 3–15 years and 20 age-matching healthy control subjects.Results: Plasmatic levels of lactate and LOX were significantly higher in autistic patients compared to healthy subjects and that of PK and HK were significantly lower in these patients as compared to controls. …”

“…Secondary analyses assessed the robustness of the results to different pre-processing approaches and their replicability in two independent samples: the EU-AIMS Longitudinal European Autism Project (LEAP) and the Gender Explorations of Neurogenetics and Development to Advance Autism Research. Results Discovery analyses in ABIDE revealed significant main effects of diagnosis and sex across the intrinsic functional connectivity of the posterior cingulate cortex, regional homogeneity and voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) in several cortical regions, largely converging in the default network midline. …”
