Brain vessel issues connected to autism
A study from the University of Ottawa has found that a defect in the brain's blood vessels associated with autism can be treated by activating the P2Y2 receptor, which increases blood flow and alleviates behavioral symptoms such as hyperactivity, repetition, and impaired motor learning. The study demonstrated that restoring vascular function is achieved by activating this receptor on endothelial cells, which rebalances blood flow and reduces the vessels’ response to increased neural activity, with early intervention potentially being more effective.
