Objective (s) It is well known that prenatal stresses (PS) induce a variety of neurobiological
and behavioral alterations, some of them involving the hippocampal formation. This study …

OBJECTIVES: There are some evidences indicating that stress can affect hippocampal
survival and function. During pregnancy mother is exposed to more stress and anxiety; also …

Objective (s): Epilepsy is a neurodevelopmental disorder which is strongly influenced by
genetic and environmental factors. Gestational stress has been shown to be an important …

Stress is a threatening factor that all living organisms encounter throughout life. Depending
on the type of stress, there are several mechanisms for keeping body homeostasis to …

Objective: Development of the central nervous system (CNS) is dependent on interac tions
between genetic and epigenetic factors, some of which could affect the susceptibility of the …

Prenatal stress has been shown to result in the development of a number of neurological
disorders in the offspring. Most of these disorders are a result of an altered HPA axis …

Objective (s): Stress induces many homeostatic aberrations which are followed by lifelong
allostatic responses. Epilepsy is developed or influenced by different environmental factors …

Objective (s): Stress during pregnancy is able to bring extensive effects on neurobehavioral
development in offspring. The GABAergic system plays a pivotal role in neuronal excitability …

A substantial number of human epidemiological data, as well as experimental studies,
suggest that adverse maternal stress during gestation is involved in abnormal behavior …

Chronic stress by immobilization during pregnancy may cause alterations in mechanisms
maintaining homeostasis in the adrenal gland. The objective of this study was to quantify …
