Abstract
The aetiology of autism-spectrum disorders is partly explained by genetic factors, but a substantial component is attributed to environmental exposures. New evidence suggests that paternal obesity increases the risk of having a child with autism, which raises the possibility that obesity-driven, autism-related shifts in epigenetic reprogramming occur during spermatogenesis.
