Dates
from May 31, 2023 to June 26, 2023
Une publication collaborative entre l'équipe Psychiatrie Neurofonctionnelle et l'équipe Imagerie, biomarqueurs et Thérapie avec Frédéric Briend et Marie Gomot dans Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry.
Highlights
Autistics adults exhibit contrasted results about levels of glutamate in the bilateral ACC.
There are functional differences between the left and right ACC.
Therefore, we looked at glutamate in the left and right ACC separately.
No alteration in glutamate levels were found.
To better understand the excitatory/inhibitory balance in autism, further studies should examine GABA in the same way.
