Mutations in TSC2, a gene linked to autism and a related condition called tuberous sclerosis complex, cause developing neurons to ignore chemical cues that help them connect, a new study suggests. The results could explain the altered wiring patterns observed in the brains of people with such mutations. TSC2 mutations disrupt the formation of axons, […]
