A new test for autism spectrum disorder: Metabolic data from different cell types

Year: 2021
Type: data-paper
Abstract: Experiments employing the Phenotype Mammalian Microarray (PM-M) technology were performed on lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) from individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and age-matched controls. We used the custom-made PM-M plate designed to assess differential utilization of the amino acid tryptophan. Multiple parameters such as the sample size, incubation time, and cell concentration have been tested, leading to optimized protocols and minimized background noise by variable selection while controlling for false discoveries. The assay generated data based on the production of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) in the presence of different compounds containing tryptophan and showed clear differences between ASD and control samples.
