Maternal Stress, Preterm Birth, and DNA Methylation at Imprint Regulatory Sequences in Humans

Maternal Stress, Preterm Birth, and DNA Methylation at Imprint Regulatory Sequences in Humans

In infants exposed to maternal stress in utero, phenotypic plasticity through epigenetic events may mechanistically explain increased risk of preterm birth (PTB), which confers increased risk for neurodevelopmental disorders, cardiovascular disease, and cancers in adulthood. We examined associations...
