An autism-associated point mutation in the neuroligin cytoplasmic tail selectively impairs AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission in hippocampus
A attracts and activates microglia and astrocytes, leading to the release of pro-inflammatory mediators such as TNF, IL-6, IL-2, and IL-1, as well as reactive oxygen and nitrogen species produced by oxidative stress, which ultimately leads to neuronal cell death (35)
