This overview provides a review of the most pertinent recent research findings in this area. Exogenous augmentation of GSH in the lung epithelial lining fluid is possible, and therapeutic approaches include administration of aerosolized buffered GSH, intravenous GSH, and oral GSH.

Lyme Disease and Autism A New Paradigm (PDF)
the purpose of the event was to explore the conection between Lyme and autism and discuss the best approaches to identify and treat autistic children infected with the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi.
Metabolic endophenotype and related genotypes are associated with oxidative stress in children with autism (PDF)
We propose that an increases vulnerability to oxidative stress may contribute to the development and clinical manifestations of autism.

Movement analysis in infancy may be useful for early diagnosis of autism (PDF)
Our findings support the view that movement disturbances play an intrinsic part in the phenomenon of autism, that they are present at birth, and that they can be used to diagnose the presence of autism in the first few months of life. They indicate the need for the development of methods of therapy to be […]
Neurodevelopmental disorders following thimerosal-containing childhoos immunizations: a follow-up analysis (PDF)
Oxytocin Increases Retention of Social Cognition in Autism (PDF)
These results are consistent with studies linking oxytocin to social recognition in rodents as well as studies linking oxytocin to prosocial behavior in humans and suggest that oxytocin might facilitate social information processing in those with autism. These findings also provide preliminary support for the use of oxytocin in the treatment of autism.
Spironolactone might be a desirable immunologic and hormonal intervention in autism spectrum disorders (PDF)
Multiple studies now demonstrate that autism is medically characterized, in part, by immune system dysregulation, including evidence of neuroglial activation and gastrointestinal inflammation. This neuroglial process has further been characterized as neuroinflammation. In addition, a subset of autistic children exhibit higher than average levels of androgens. Spironolactone is an aldosterone antagonist and potassium-sparing diuretic with […]
The potential importance of steroids in the treatment of autistic spectrum disorders and other disorders involving mercury toxicity (PDF)
In light of the fact that there are a number of other diseases that may have a chronic mercury toxicity component, such as Alzheimer’s disease, heart disease, obesity, ALS, asthma, and other various forms of autoimmune disorders, it is imperative that further research should be conducted to understand mercury-testosterone toxicity.
