Precocious maturation and Purkinje cell dysfunction in the mouse Chd8 haploinsufficient cerebellum
The cerebellum plays an emerging, but understudied, role in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). Mutations in CHD8 cause a monogenic NDD (CHD8-NDD) characterized by autism and other manifestations, and prior work in Chd8 mutant mice reported cerebellar abnormalities, raising the possibility of cerebellar contribution t...
