Genetic study links pregnancy stress to foetal brain defects

Genetic study links pregnancy stress to foetal brain defects

A genetic study in mice shows how stress during pregnancy can alter immune signalling in the foetal brain, increasing the risk of neurodevelopmental abnormalities. In a paper published in the journal Nature Neuroscience, researchers have mapped how stress events during pregnancy can affect the neuroimmune landscape of the developing foetal brain
