Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To analyze anonymized existing multi-omics data (bulk and single-cell transcriptomics, ATAC-seq, histone acetylation, DNA methylation, miRNA, etc.) from 11 cortical regions in ASD and control subjects stored in the PsychENCODE/NRGR database, and to characterize molecular subtypes of ASD across cortical regions and examine their associations with clinical and behavioral phenotypes.

Basic objectives2

Others

Basic objectives -Others

As an observational secondary analysis of existing de-identified data, to explore differential molecular signatures (gene expression and epigenomic measures) among ASD subtypes and their relationships with clinical phenotypes.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Identification of molecular subtypes of ASD based on cortical multi-omics profiles (clustering-derived subtype classification).

Key secondary outcomes

(1) Differential molecular features among subtypes (gene expression, ATAC-seq, histone acetylation, DNA methylation, miRNA, etc.)
(2) Associations between subtypes and clinical/behavioral measures (e.g., ADI-R, ADOS, IQ).
