Le rôle du métabolisme du cholestérol et diverses anomalies des stéroïdes dans les troubles du spectre autistique

Aperçu: G.M.
Sur la base des preuves de la littérature de recherche pertinente, l'étude présente une hypothèse selon laquelle il peut y avoir un lien entre le taux de cholestérol, la vitamine D et les hormones stéroïdiennes qui a par la suite influé sur le développement d'au moins certains des «autismes»

Abstract

Based on evidence from the relevant research literature, we present a hypothesis that there may be a link between cholesterol, vitamin D, and steroid hormones which subsequently impacts on the development of at least some of the "autisms" [Coleman & Gillberg]. Our hypothesis, driven by the peer reviewed literature, posits that there may be links between cholesterol metabolism, which we will refer to as "steroid metabolism" and findings of steroid abnormalities of various kinds (cortisol, testosterone, estrogens, progesterone, vitamin D) in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Further research investigating these potential links is warranted to further our understanding of the biological mechanisms underlying ASD.
