Abstract
⺠GABA was assessed in subjects with autism, unaffected siblings and controls. ⺠Concentration was assessed in the left perisylvian region using MEGAPRESS. ⺠The autism and sibling groups exhibited significantly reduced GABA. ⺠Results are consistent with a heritable deficit in cortical inhibition in autism.
