New theory of autism is that the brains of autistic children are normal – simply disregulated. This means that autistic symptoms might be reversible.
The locus coeruleus nordenergic (LC-NA) produces fever and also controls behavior. When autistic children get fevers their autistic symptoms reduce. Thus drugs that target the LC-NA offer a new therapeutic approach. Autism may be reversible. For more information go go http://www.aecom.yu.edu
