Abstract

Significance: Heterozygous NRXN1 deletions predispose to schizophrenia and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Engineered heterozygous NRXN1 deletions impair neurotransmitter release in human neurons, suggesting a synaptic pathophysiological mechanism. In a multicenter effort to test the generality and robustness of this pivotal observation, we used, at two laboratories, independent analyses of patient-derived and newly engineered human neurons with heterozygous NRXN1 deletions. Schizophrenia patient-derived neurons with NRXN1 deletions exhibited the same major decrease in neurotransmitter release and an increase in CASK protein as engineered human neurons with NRXN1 deletions. Strikingly, engineered mouse Nrxn1 -deficient neurons derived by the same method displayed no such phenotype, suggesting a human-specific role for NRXN1 . Thus, heterozygous NRXN1 deletions robustly impair synaptic function in human neurons, enabling future drug discovery efforts.

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.
