CRISPR-edited stem cells reveal hidden causes of autism spectrum disorder.

Kobe University created a bank of 63 mouse embryonic stem cell lines containing the mutations most strongly associated with the disorder.

These models not only replicate autism-related traits but also expose key dysfunctions, like the brain s inability to clean up faulty proteins.

Kobe University is a national university with roots dating back to the Kobe Higher Commercial School founded in 1902 .

It is now one of Japan ’s leading comprehensive research universities with nearly 16,000 students and nearly 1,700 faculty.

Combining the social and natural sciences to cultivate leaders with an interdisciplinary perspective, Kobe University creates knowledge and fosters innovation.
