Abstract Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is the second-most common neurodevelopmental in childhood. This complex developmental manifests with restricted interests, repetitive behaviors, and difficulties communication social awareness. The inherited acquired causes of ASD impact many diverse brain regions, challenging efforts to identify a shared neuroanatomical substrate for this range symptoms. striatum its connections are among most implicated sites abnormal structure and/or function ASD. Striatal projection neurons develop segregated tissue compartments, matrix striosome, that histochemically, pharmacologically, functionally distinct. Immunohistochemical assessment animal models autism described matrix:striosome volume ratios, an possible shift from striosome volume. Shifting ratio could result expansion matrix, reduction spatial redistribution or combination these changes. Each type ratio-shifting abnormality may predispose but yield different combinations features. Methods We developed cohort 426 children adults (213 matched ASD-control pairs) performed connectivity-based parcellation (diffusion tractography) striatum. identified voxels matrix-like striosome-like patterns structural connectivity. Results Matrix-like was increased ASD, no evident change organization compartment. inter-compartment difference (matrix minus striosome) within each individual 31% larger both caudate putamen, somatotopic zones throughout rostral-caudal extent Subjects moderate elevations ADOS (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule) scores had volume, those highly elevated 3.7-fold increases Conclusions Matrix embedded distinct functional networks, suggesting compartment-selective injury maldevelopment mediate specific clinical Previously, assessing striatal compartments humans required post mortem tissue. provides means assess neuropsychiatric diseases compartment-specific abnormalities.
