Learning objectives:
• Aberrant immunity during the perinatal period is critical for increased risk of developing ASD
• Brain inflammation can develop when the gut-blood and blood-brain-barrier are disrupted
• Neurotensin and mitochondrial components participate in brain inflammation
• Serum neurotensin and mitochondrial DNA may serve as objective markers for ASD
• The flavonone luteolin inhibits Neuroinflammation and is neuroprotective
• The luteolin-containing supplements NeuroProtek and BrainGain have significant benefit in ASD

AutismOne is a private, nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization with its primary mission of helping children and families within the autism spectrum and related conditions. AutismOne is an educational organization, and all lectures, information, and presentations are for informational purposes only. No information on this website nor any AutismOne related event should be construed as medical and/or legal advice or recommendations. We strongly advise that all children needing specific medical or legal advice seek counsel of a duly licensed professional. Every child is unique, and to attempt to address complex medical issues without a trained and experienced expert is akin to a lay person attempting to perform surgery without any training. Doing either would risk serious (and in some cases could have irreversible) consequences.
