Part of the reason there is no universal autism therapy that all doctors subscribe to is the fact that there are still many questions as to what actually causes autism. A recent study, however, has identified two genes that appear to be directly linked to autism. LRRN3 and LRRTM3, genes found in two brain proteins, had variations in people who were more susceptible to autism.

The study was conducted by an international team of researchers and is one of the most comprehensive investigations of genes and autism to date. Both of the proteins that were identified play a critical role in brain development, which is often the culprit in autism. One of the proteins is believed to help in the structuring of the nervous system, while the other seems to work with synaptic connections.
