Peptides and Exorphins in the Autism Spectrum
Abstract
Problem: Some researchers have not found the opioids in urine of autistic children. We have therefore looked at this problem again.
Method: Mass spectrometry and fragmentation mass spectrometry (MS/MS) have been carried out on peaks from the HPLC that show co-chromatography with synthetic standards and peaks that are shared by different autistic children.

GABA System Dysfunction in Autism and Related Disorders: From Synapse to Symptoms
