ABSTRACT
Introduction. The study of autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) at the genetic level is extremely important to
understand their origin. In Mexico, there are few works addressed from this perspective.
Objective. We investigated
the role of the Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (
BDNF) gene variant rs6265 G/A for single nucleotide
polymorphism analysis in Mexican children with ASD using a case-control association design.
Method. We
made a pilot study by case-control analysis adjusting by gender, age, and ancestry.
Results. Our study found
no association between the
BDNF rs6265 gene polymorphism and ASD [
p = .419,
OR = 1.597 (.514, 4.967)].
Discussion and conclusion. Worldwide, the results of case-control association studies with the rs6265 of
BDNF are controversial and do not always replicate. This may be due to the ethnicity of our population and
additional factors not studied in the present work. Our study suggests that the SNP rs6265 is not contributing
for ASD susceptibility in Mexican population.
