Biomarkers in human sperm have been discovered that may specify whether a father is likely to have a child with autism.
Scientists at Washington State University, Valencia Clinical Research Centre and Valencia University in Spain investigated sperm epigenetics and discovered a set of genomic features, called DNA methylation regions, in sperm samples from men who had autistic children. With this information the scientists conducted a series of blind tests to determine whether they could predict which men had autistic children. The results of these tests showed that they were able to predict men who had fathered autistic children with 90 percent accuracy. ....
