Sousa1,2* Down syndrome is a genetic condition that causes intellectual disability and is characterized by early-onset delays in motor, cognitive, and language development. The molecular mechanisms underlying these neurodevelopmental impairments remain poorly understood. We used single-nucleus multiomic sequencing to simultaneously profile gene expression and chromatin accessibility in the Down syndrome prefrontal cortex during early postnatal development, a critical period for synaptogenesis, neural maturation, and developmental neuroimmune interactions. …
