a friend’s 3 year old has been diagnosed as autistic recently. is there a detox for this ? or is it too late?? i am saddened by this and prayerful that my grands that are still being vaccinated will make it through.

In autism, we find that both methylation and transsulfuration pathways are often impaired. These are phase 2 liver processes that remove toxins from the body and produce the body’s#1 antioxidant, glutathione. However, toxins interfere with this pathway and thereby reduce the production of glutathione. In fact, blood tests are being studied that can diagnose kids with autism simply by measuring methylation and sulfation metabolites in their blood. These blood tests are amazingly accurate but not yet on the market.

To begin with, there are chemical reactions that take place within each cell. These provide energy for vital processes. Among thousands of metabolic reactions in the body, the methylation reaction is one of the most important and universal. It has numerous functions, including controlling inflammation, repairing genetic DNA and RNA, controlling neurotransmitters, and energy production. Methylation works to recycle glutathione, the body’s biggest antioxidant, which is needed to help the body detoxify.

By contrast, the transsulfuration pathway is the primary method of metabolizing sulfur-containing amino acids. Subsequently, it plays an essential role in providing cysteine to make glutathione.

For these reasons, measures to enhance methylation and transsulfuration detoxication processes may help kids with autism.

Using glutathione, or the building blocks that make glutathione, in the treatment of autism symptoms helps to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation leading to improved sensory integration and reduction in self-injurious, repetitive and aggressive behaviours.

Note: Glutathione provides protection from oxidative stress-induced damage through the reduction of reactive oxygen species for the maintenance of oxidant homeostasis. Our purpose was to test the effects of depleting tissue GSH by buthionine sulfoximine on brain oxidative metabolism and cognitive performance in rats. Glutathione depletion induced a compensatory response on antioxidant enzymes and increase of cell damage indicators in all the examined cerebral areas at 24h.

The effect of GSH depletion on spatial memory recorded at 24h post-surgery showed significant differences between experimental groups for the escape latency to the platform and percentage of total swim distance spending in the target quadrant. The acquisition of a new spatial condition 24h after GSH depletion revealed differences between experimental groups for latencies, swim distance, swim distance in the target quadrant and percentage of total swim distance spending in the target quadrant. The ability of BSO treated group to maintain a restraining behavior was significantly smaller compared with control group. We founded significant correlation among variables of the behavioral studies and oxidative stress indicators. In conclusion, our model shows how increased ROS production by transitory glutathione depletion constitutes the primary cause to neuronal metabolic stress with alterations in synaptic signaling and cognitive deficits.

Chronic inflammation alters production and release of glutathione and related thiols in human U373 astroglial cells

Megan L Steele et al. Cell Mol Neurobiol. 2013 Jan.

Neurons rely on glutathione (GSH) and its degradation product cysteinylglycine released by astrocytes to maintain their antioxidant defences. This is particularly important under conditions of inflammation and oxidative stress, as observed in many neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD). The effects of inflammatory activation on intracellular GSH content and the extracellular thiol profile (including cysteinylglycine and homocysteine) of astrocytes were investigated.

U373 astroglial cells exposed to IL-1β and TNF-α for up to 96 h showed a dose-dependent increase in IL-6 release, indicative of increasing pro-inflammatory cellular activation. With increasing concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α (0.01-1 ng/ml), an increase in both intracellular and extracellular GSH levels was observed, followed by a return to control levels in response to higher concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α. Extracellular levels of cysteinylglycine decreased in response to all concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α. In contrast, levels of the neurotoxic thiol homocysteine increased in a dose-dependent manner to IL-1β and TNF-α-induced activation. Our results suggest that chronically activated astrocytes in the brain might fail to adequately maintain GSH substrate delivery to neurons, thus promoting neuronal vulnerability. They might also explain the elevated levels of homocysteine found in the brains and serum of patients with AD.

Light from electrons confined by quantum dots has been used to activate and control targeted brain neurons. The method demonstrates a noninvasive way to study how cells communicate and how specific cells may contribute to brain disorders.
