After concluding the findings of a latest research, a Professor of neurosciences at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and Director of the Autism Center of Excellence, Eric Courchesne, anticipated that the brains of autistic children are more likely to have numerous neurons as compared to other counterpart without autism.

The expert has claimed that the research has attempted to explore the conditions that play a vital role to create feasible environment for the start or development of autism. In addition, he had expressed confidence that the study findings will accelerate the advance research regarding the disorder.

"This isn't just a simple increase in neurons. It means a huge increase in potential connections and, therefore, a potential for mis-wiring which would lead to abnormal function”, explained Eric Courchesne while insisting that the findings have indicated towards overgrowth of brain among children with autism.

During the study course, the experts have acknowledged a number of genes that are believed to stimulate the risk of autism, although, the genetic cause has succeeded to explain just 10 to 20% of cases. Besides these factors, several other recent studies have marked environmental factors including some condition in the womb as possible reason to stimulate the condition.

In addition, the lead study author has claimed to acknowledge more number of brain cells among the children living with autism. Further, it was also observed that the brain of these children weighted significantly more as compared to children of same age group but without autism.

Autism is a serious mental health condition that can be considered as a spectrum of disorders that can result in an intense inability in communication along with mental retardation, behavioral disorder and other symptoms such as with Asperger's syndrome, in some cases.
