The ADNP Kids Research Foundation is so grateful that we have Dr Joseph Buxbaum leading our ADNP research team, and we are happy to be a sponsor of this amazing celebration by the Seaver Autism Center this week in New York. We were lucky to host other ADNP families who have had children go to the amazing Seaver Center and next year we hope that more ADNP families can attend.

Hot off the press 🗞️ LEUCOVORIN

Our favorite ADNP professor and lead researcher Joseph D. Buxbaum, PhD, MSc; Director, Seaver Autism Center at Mount Sinai discusses how leucovorin may stem from a yet-unproven hypothesis:

“Some studies suggest that cerebral folate deficiency (CFD) and clinical signs of autism may be caused by autoantibodies against the folate receptor and consequent folate deficiency, a hypothesis based on weak science. This reinterpretation of CFD, calling it autoimmune CFD, is not on the [medical] boards. That is a made-up construct."

Read it - The Transmitter:

The studies include 46 people, mostly toddlers, who have cerebral folate deficiency due to variants in a folate transporter.
