dc.description.abstractBackground: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by symptoms such as limited, and repetitive behavior patterns and disordered social interaction and communication. The etiology of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is not clearly known, it has been emphasized that the immune-inflammatory system may also play a role in this disease. This study aimed to evaluate in intestinal permeability, food antigen-antibody levels, inflammatory processes, and neuron damage in patients with ASD. Subjects and methods: Thirty-five children between the ages of 3-12 with ASD and 35 controls were included in the study. Both participants' height and weight were measured, and the parents filled the Socio-demographic Data and the Gastrointestinal Systems (GIS) Symptoms Form. Venous blood samples were collected, and serum zonulin, anti-gliadin Ig A and Ig G, IL6, TNF-alpha, TGFJ3, S100B, and NSE levels were measured by ELISA. Results: Serum zonulin levels in the ASD group were found to be significantly lower. IL-6 and TGF-beta were found to be significantly higher in the ASD group. There was no difference between the two groups in terms of serum anti-gliadin Ig A and Ig G and TNF-alpha values. Also, GIS symptoms, NSE and SlOOB levels were found similar between two groups. Conclusions: Although findings showing low zonulin levels and increased inflammatory processes in ASD were found in this study, no difference was found in the parameters of brain damage. The findings show that intestinal permeability does not decrease in ASD and that inflammatory processes may play a role in ASD.en_US
