LIPA and fragile X syndrome: For example, mutations in neuroligins, a family of ASD-linked synaptic adhesion proteins, impair tonic endocannabinoid signaling.34 In a related example, we found that deletion of FMRP, the mRNA-trafficking protein missing in Fragile X Syndrome, impairs the formation of a key signaling complex that links metabotropic glutamate receptor-5 (mGluR5) and the 2-AG-synthesizing enzyme diacylglycerol lipase-α (DGL-α).28 Third, ASD-related insults disturb resting endocannabinoid levels or endocannabinoid system components.
