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

Endocrinology, 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-,
