Note: Directions of effects are shown comparing each model system to their corresponding WT controls across the three studies (upward arrow: increased, downward arrow: decreased, ≈: no difference, ^: non‐significant trend). Two symbols occupying a single cell reflect both the original study and replication results. “‐” indicates no data collected for that model.

Abbreviations: ASD, autism spectrum disorder; HET, heterozygous; KO, knockout; WT, wild type.
