1 Population and family based association study on TPH1, TPH2 and ITGB3 genes indicate serotonergic system involvement in autism spectrum disorder Asem Surindro Singh, Ph. D. Email : asemsuren @ gmail. com

2 ASD: childhood onset, genetic, neurodevelopmental disorder. (autism, asperger’s syndrom, PDD-NOS) Behaviorally defined 1.Lack of social interaction 2.Lack of communication 3.Restricted, repetitive behaviors and interests. Introduction Cerebral Cortex Basal Ganglia Corpus Callosum Cerebellum Brain stem Hippocampus Amygdala Pic: Jacob Bartnett Figure 1. Parts of brain affected by autism

3 High Prevalence: 1 in 68 children, (CDC, 2014). Concordance: 3 - 8% (dizygotic twins) and 69 – 95% (monozygotic twins) (Dawson G, 2008). Serotonin system abnormality in ASD: Brain and peripheral Serotonergic system: TPH1, TPH2, SLC6A4, SLC18A2, ITGB3. Serotonin abnormality: Synthesis, degradation, transport. Candidate gene association studies. Prevalence and cure: Urgently needed, pathophysiology unclear. Present study: TPH1, TPH2 and ITGB3 genes Two approaches: genetic association & gene-gene interaction analysis.

17 LD variation pattern was observed between the SNPs of case, control and parents. Pair-wise haplotype analysis reveal over-transmission ofTPH1. Pair-wise haplotype analysis showed under-expression of TPH2. MDR and MDRP showed significant interaction of TPH1 & TPH2 Indirect interaction of TPH1,TPH2 and ITGB3 was shown by bioinformatic analysis; and the SNP markers were shown to have functional (from low to moderate) role in gene regulation. Summary of the result

18  The present study using genetic association and gene-gene interaction analyses of TPH1, TPH2 and ITGB3 variants support the serotonergic abnormality in ASD.  The three genes are likely involve in the etiology of the disorder.  However further studies using cellular and animal models are required to validate the finding which may provide some important information in the disease pathophysiology and in the future therapeutic development of ASD.
