A total of 103 genes in astrocytes (including 7 showing upregulated expression and 96 showing downregulated expression), 117 genes in ODCs (including 24 showing upregulated expression and 93 showing downregulated expression), and 264 genes in projection neurons (including 3 showing upregulated expression and 261 showing downregulated expression) exhibited a similar expression pattern (Supplementary Figure S5D), further suggesting that klf7 is involved in autism by regulating other autistic genes. The gene discussed is KLF7; the disease is autism.
