Prenatal Stress and Maternal Role in Neurodevelopment. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnu Rev Dev Psychol
This review summarizes recent findings on stress-related programming of brain development in utero, with an emphasis on situating findings within the mothers’ broader psychosocial experiences. Meta-analyses of observational studies on prenatal stress exposure indicate that the direction and size of effects on child neurodevelopment are heterogeneous ...

The role of glucocorticoid, interleukin-1β, and antioxidants in prenatal stress effects on embryonic microglia

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Maternal stress during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of psychopathology in offspring. Resident immune cells of the brain, microglia, may be mediators of prenatal stress and altered neurodevelopment.

Prenatal Stress, Glucocorticoids, and Developmental Programming of the Stress Response [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology, 2017
The early environment has a major impact on the developing embryo, fetus, and infant. Parental adversity (maternal and paternal) and glucocorticoid exposure before conception and during pregnancy have profound effects on the development and subsequent function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and related behaviors. These effects are species-,
