Five other ASD subjects with mental deficits received nasal OXT for various periods three subjects showed improved symptoms, while two showed little or no effect. One proband with the R140W allele receiving intranasal OXT for approximately 3years showed improvement in areas of social approach, eye contact and communication behaviors, emotion, irritability, and aggression. The OXT levels were unchanged in healthy subjects with or without this mutation. The plasma levels of OXT in ASD subjects with the R140W allele were lower than those in ASD subjects lacking this allele. This mutation was found in four probands of ASD and in family members of three pedigrees with variable levels of ASD or ASD traits. The second SNP of interest, rs1800561 (4693C>T), leads to the substitution of an arginine (R) at codon 140 by tryptophan (W R140W) in CD38. Although this finding was partially confirmed in low-functioning autism subjects in Israel, it has not been replicated in Japanese HFA subjects. The SNP rs3796863 (C>A) was associated with high-functioning autism (HFA) in American samples from the Autism Gene Resource Exchange. Hence, there is a rationale for investigating single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human CD38 gene in ASD subjects. Therefore, the theoretical basis for pharmacological treatments has not been established. However, the etiology of ASDs remains largely unknown. The autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), characterized by defects in reciprocal social interaction and communication, occur either sporadically or in a familial pattern. Benjamins role in Brooklyn Psych Rock band Evolfo has contributed greatly. The album explores themes of pain, spiritual growth, patriarchy and psychedelia. It was written and recorded by local musician Benjamin Allen Adams from 2017-2020 in his Brooklyn apartment. When CD38 was disrupted, social amnesia was observed in Cd38 knockout mice. Amnesia is the first release for the Brooklyn based psych-soul project Ochre. Previously, we demonstrated that CD38, a transmembrane protein with ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity, plays a critical role in mouse social behavior by regulating the release of oxytocin (OXT), which is essential for mutual recognition.
