Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly inheritable neurodevelopmental disorder that causes diverse deficits in social communication and restricted repetitive sensorimotor behaviors. Here, we studied a human-induced pluripotent cell line from an autistic patient with impaired social function and a normal intelligence quotient (IQ > 70). The cell line was validated by its morphology, gene expression, and potential to differentiate into three germ layers. This model can be used to explore the pathophysiological and molecular mechanisms in patients with ASD, compared those of with patients with normal cognitive abilities.

The term "neurodiversity" refers to the natural heterogeneity in human neurological functioning, which includes neurodevelopmental differences and other mental health conditions (e.g., autism spectrum disorder [ASD], attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder [ADHD], dyslexia, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and depression).

Objective: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition influenced by various genetic and environmental factors. Currently, there is no definitive clinical test, such as a blood analysis or brain scan, for early diagnosis. The objective of this study is to develop a computational model that predicts ASD driver genes in the early stages using genomic data, aiming to enhance early diagnosis and intervention.
