CHD8 regulates neurodevelopmental pathways associated with autism spectrum disorder in neural progenitors
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Truncating mutation of chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 8 ( CHD8 ) represents one of the strongest known risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We mimicked the effects of such heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in neural progenitor cells and integrated RNA sequencing with genome-wide delineation of CHD8 binding. Our results reveal that the molecular mechanism by which CHD8 alters neurodevelopmental pathways may involve both direct and indirect effects, the latter involving down-regulation following CHD8 suppression. We also find that chd8 suppression in zebrafish results in macrocephaly, consistent with observations in patients harboring loss-of-function mutations. We show that reduced expression of CHD8 impacts a variety of other functionally distinct ASD-associated genes, suggesting that the diverse functions of ASD risk factors may constitute multiple means of triggering a smaller number of final common pathways.

Sugathan et al. identified 6,860 CHD8-binding sites in human neural progenitor cells.
“6,860 CHD8-binding sites in human neural progenitor cells using the intersection of signal-enriched regions detected by all three CHD8 antibodies used in the study (Sugathan et al., 2014).”
From Large-Scale Exome Sequencing Study Implicates Both Developmental and Functional Changes in the Neurobiology of Autism (2020) · cites this paper as Sugathan et al., 2014
The Results (p. 3) report 7,324 CHD8-binding sites replicated by all three antibodies, not 6,860. Materials and Methods (p. 10) confirms that 7,324 is the count of peaks detected by all three antibodies. (LLM, conf=0.92)

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredDysregulation of neural progenitor cell proliferation has been observed in genetically engineered mouse models involving ASD-associated genes (e.g., CHD8).
“Expansion of basal progenitor cells in rodent models 25 has been shown to regulate cerebral volume size and folding, while the dysregulation of neural progenitor cell proliferation has been observed in a genetically engineered mouse models involving ASD-associated genes (e.g., CHD8) 26 .”

The Results (p. 7) report increased numbers of proliferating brain cells after chd8 suppression, supporting the link between CHD8 and altered proliferation. But those experiments used zebrafish embryos, not genetically engineered mouse models; the paper's human neural progenitor experiments examined gene expression. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredEvidence for enrichment of ASD genes among genes dysregulated in iPSC models of CHD8 or FOXP1 was strongest for genes dysregulated in trans.
“Indeed, evidence for the enrichment of ASD genes amongi genes that are dysregulated in iPSC models of CHD8 (Sugathan et al., 2014) or FOXP1 (Araujo et al., 2015) was strongest for genes that were dysregulated in trans.”

Studies on CHD8 and iPS-derived ASD neurons indicate the dysregulation of proliferation and macrocephaly in ASD could be linked to the disruption of these signaling pathways and shortened G1/S transition.
“Studies on CHD8 and iPS-derived ASD neurons indicate the dysregulation of proliferation and macrocephaly in ASD could be linked to the disruption of these signaling pathways and shortened G1/S transition[54, 55, 57, 94, 183, 192, 193].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
