16p11.2 haploinsufficiency reduces mitochondrial biogenesis in brain endothelial cells and alters brain metabolism in adult mice.

Proximal Deletion,

All,

This study found that mice with a 16p11.2 deletion show changes in how their brain uses energy (glucose), linked to reduced mitochondria production in brain blood vessel cells, which may help families understand why brain function differences occur and could point toward future treatment targets.
