Autism: a MAR diagnostic test also would assess a mother’s risk of having a child with autism prior to conception.

Because of ignorance, lack of good information and others factors, Autism cases unfortunately progressively emerge in our families. Most often as a father or mother, you are depressed.

However, there are a sign of hope; Researchers have identified the specific antibodies that target fetal brain proteins in the blood of a

·        The researchers have named autism related to these antibodies “Maternal Autoantibody-Related," or MAR autism.

·        These findings establish a cause for a significant portion of autism cases, t

·        These findings opening up new lines of inquiry into possible biological treatments

 “This test would be invaluable for women who are considering becoming pregnant and could lead to earlier and more accurate diagnosis of children with developmental challenges and help get them into behavioral interventions at younger ages.” said MIND Institute Director Leonard Abbeduto.
