text: "Within the human body, the brain exhibits the highest rate of energy consumption
amongst all organs, with the majority of generated ATP being utilized to sustain
neuronal activity. Therefore, the metabolism of the mature cerebral cortex is
geared towards preserving metabolic homeostasis whilst generating significant
amounts of energy. This requires a precise interplay between diverse metabolic
pathways, spanning from a tissue-wide scale to the level of individual neurons.
Disturbances to this delicate metabolic equilibrium, such as those resulting from
maternal malnutrition\r\nor mutations affecting metabolic enzymes, often result
in neuropathological variants of neurodevelopment. For instance, mutations in
SLC7A5, a transporter of metabolically essential large neutral amino acids (LNAAs),
have been associated with autism and microcephaly. However, despite recent progress
in the field, the extent of metabolic restructuring that occurs within the developing
brain and the corresponding alterations in nutrient demands during various critical
periods remain largely unknown. To investigate this, we performed metabolomic
profiling of the murine cerebral cortex to characterize the metabolic state of
the forebrain at different developmental stages. We found that the developing
cortex undergoes substantial metabolic reprogramming, with specific sets of metabolites
displaying stage-specific changes. According to our observations, we determined
a distinct temporal period in postnatal development during which the cortex displays
heightened reliance on LNAAs. Hence, using a conditional knock-out mouse model,
we deleted Slc7a5 in neural cells, allowing us to monitor the impact of a perturbed
neuronal metabolic state across multiple developmental stages of corticogenesis.
We found that manipulating the levels of essential LNAAs in cortical neurons in
vivo affects one particular perinatal developmental period critical for cortical
network refinement. Abnormally low intracellular LNAA levels result in cell-autonomous
alterations in neuronal lipid metabolism, excitability, and survival during this
particular time window. Although most of the effects of Slc7a5 deletion on neuronal
physiology are transient, derailment of these processes during this brief but
crucial window leads to long-term circuit dysfunction in mice. In conclusion,
out data indicate that the cerebral cortex undergoes significant metabolic reorganization
during development. This process involves the intricate integration of multiple
metabolic pathways to ensure optimal neuronal function throughout different developmental
stages. Our findings offer a paradigm for understanding how neurons synchronize
the expression of nutrient-related genes with their activity to allow proper brain
maturation. Further, our results demonstrate that disruptions in these precisely
calibrated metabolic processes during critical periods of brain development may
result in neuropathological outcomes in mice and in humans."

text: Little is known about the critical metabolic changes that neural cells have
to undergo during development and how temporary shifts in this program can influence
brain circuitries and behavior. Inspired by the discovery that mutations in SLC7A5,
a transporter of metabolically essential large neutral amino acids (LNAAs), lead
to autism, we employed metabolomic profiling to study the metabolic states of
the cerebral cortex across different developmental stages. We found that the forebrain
undergoes significant metabolic remodeling throughout development, with certain
groups of metabolites showing stage-specific changes, but what are the consequences
of perturbing this metabolic program? By manipulating Slc7a5 expression in neural
cells, we found that the metabolism of LNAAs and lipids are interconnected in
the cortex. Deletion of Slc7a5 in neurons affects the postnatal metabolic state,
leading to a shift in lipid metabolism. Additionally, it causes stage- and cell-type-specific
alterations in neuronal activity patterns, resulting in a long-term circuit dysfunction.

text: Mutations affecting mTOR or RAS signaling underlie defined syndromes (the
so-called mTORopathies and RASopathies) with high risk for Autism Spectrum Disorder
(ASD). These syndromes show a broad variety of somatic phenotypes including cancers,
skin abnormalities, heart disease and facial dysmorphisms. Less well studied are
the neuropsychiatric symptoms such as ASD. Here, we assess the relevance of these
signalopathies in ASD reviewing genetic, human cell model, rodent studies and
clinical trials. We conclude that signalopathies have an increased liability for
ASD and that, in particular, ASD individuals with dysmorphic features and intellectual
disability (ID) have a higher chance for disruptive mutations in RAS- and mTOR-related
genes. Studies on rodent and human cell models confirm aberrant neuronal development
as the underlying pathology. Human studies further suggest that multiple hits
are necessary to induce the respective phenotypes. Recent clinical trials do only
report improvements for comorbid conditions such as epilepsy or cancer but not
for behavioral aspects. Animal models show that treatment during early development
can rescue behavioral phenotypes. Taken together, we suggest investigating the
differential roles of mTOR and RAS signaling in both human and rodent models,
and to test drug treatment both during and after neuronal development in the available
model systems

text: De novo loss of function mutations in the ubiquitin ligase-encoding gene Cullin3
lead to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In mouse, constitutive haploinsufficiency
leads to motor coordination deficits as well as ASD-relevant social and cognitive
impairments. However, induction of Cul3 haploinsufficiency later in life does
not lead to ASD-relevant behaviors, pointing to an important role of Cul3 during
a critical developmental window. Here we show that Cul3 is essential to regulate
neuronal migration and, therefore, constitutive Cul3 heterozygous mutant mice
display cortical lamination abnormalities. At the molecular level, we found that
Cul3 controls neuronal migration by tightly regulating the amount of Plastin3
(Pls3), a previously unrecognized player of neural migration. Furthermore, we
found that Pls3 cell-autonomously regulates cell migration by regulating actin
cytoskeleton organization, and its levels are inversely proportional to neural
migration speed. Finally, we provide evidence that cellular phenotypes associated
with autism-linked gene haploinsufficiency can be rescued by transcriptional activation
of the intact allele in vitro, offering a proof of concept for a potential therapeutic
approach for ASDs.

text: De novo loss of function mutations in the ubiquitin ligase-encoding gene Cullin3
(CUL3) lead to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Here, we used Cul3 mouse models
to evaluate the consequences of Cul3 mutations in vivo. Our results show that
Cul3 haploinsufficient mice exhibit deficits in motor coordination as well as
ASD-relevant social and cognitive impairments. Cul3 mutant brain displays cortical
lamination abnormalities due to defective neuronal migration and reduced numbers
of excitatory and inhibitory neurons. In line with the observed abnormal columnar
organization, Cul3 haploinsufficiency is associated with decreased spontaneous
excitatory and inhibitory activity in the cortex. At the molecular level, employing
a quantitative proteomic approach, we show that Cul3 regulates cytoskeletal and
adhesion protein abundance in mouse embryos. Abnormal regulation of cytoskeletal
proteins in Cul3 mutant neuronal cells results in atypical organization of the
actin mesh at the cell leading edge, likely causing the observed migration deficits.
In contrast to these important functions early in development, Cul3 deficiency
appears less relevant at adult stages. In fact, induction of Cul3 haploinsufficiency
in adult mice does not result in the behavioral defects observed in constitutive
Cul3 haploinsufficient animals. Taken together, our data indicate that Cul3 has
a critical role in the regulation of cytoskeletal proteins and neuronal migration
and that ASD-associated defects and behavioral abnormalities are primarily due
to Cul3 functions at early developmental stages.
