In utero and early neonatal exposure to maternal stress is linked with psychiatric disorders,
and the underlying mechanisms are currently being elucidated. We used a prenatal stressor …

Early exposure to stressful and adverse life events at fetal and neonatal stages is one of
crucial risk factors for mood disorders such as anxiety and depressive disorder in adulthood …

Recent studies demonstrate that exposure to stress changes the composition of the
intestinal microbiota, which is associated with development of stress-induced changes to …

Prenatal stress (PNS) is associated with neuropsychiatric disorders in offspring, including
anxiety, depression, and autism spectrum disorders. There is mounting evidence that these …

The gut microbiota is increasingly recognized as a key environmental factor that shapes host
development and physiology, including neural circuits formation and function. Concurrently …

Early prenatal stress disrupts maternal-to-offspring microbiota transmission and has lasting
effects on metabolism, physiology, cognition, and behavior in male mice. Here we show that …

Perturbations in the prenatal and early life environment can contribute to the development of
offspring stress dysregulation, a pervasive symptom in neuropsychiatric disease …

Abstract Background Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), such as abuse or chronic
stress, program an exaggerated adult inflammatory response to stress. Emerging rodent …

Stress is associated with numerous chronic diseases, beginning in fetal development with in
utero exposures (prenatal stress) impacting offspring's risk for disorders later in life. In …

The accumulation of adverse events in utero and during childhood differentially increases
the vulnerability to psychiatric diseases in men and women. Gut microbiota is highly …
