Abstract
Advances in molecular biology and genetics are increasingly revealing the complex etiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In parallel, a number of biochemical, anatomical, and electrophysiological measures are emerging as potential disease-relevant biomarkers that could inform the diagnosis and clinical management of ASD. Rodent ASD models play a key role in ASD research as essential experimental tools. Nevertheless, there are challenges and limitations to the validity and translational value of rodent models, including genetic relevance and cognitive performance differences between humans and rodents. In this chapter, we begin with a brief history of autism research, followed by prominent examples of disease-relevant mouse models enabled by current knowledge of genetics, molecular biology, and bioinformatics. These ASD-associated rodent models enable quantifiable biomarker development. Finally, we discuss the prospects of ASD biomarker development.
