The role of the vagus nerve during fetal development and its relationship with the environment
Francesco Cerritelli, Martin G. Frasch, Marta C. Antonelli +4
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulatory capacity begins before birth as the sympathetic and parasympathetic activity contributes significantly to the fetus' development. Seve…
Prenatal stress perturbs fetal iron homeostasis in a sex-specific manner
Peter Zimmermann, Marta C. Antonelli, Ritika Sharma +7
What is the influence of chronic maternal prenatal stress (PS) on fetal iron homeostasis? In a prospective case-control study in 164 pregnant women, we show that cord blood transfe…
Detection of Maternal and Fetal Stress from the Electrocardiogram with Self-Supervised Representation Learning
Pritam Sarkar, Silvia Lobmaier, Bibiana Fabre +5
In the pregnant mother and her fetus, chronic prenatal stress results in entrainment of the fetal heartbeat by the maternal heartbeat, quantified by the fetal stress index (FSI). D…
Early Biomarkers and Intervention Programs for the Infant Exposed to Prenatal Stress
Marta C. Antonelli, Martin G. Frasch, Mercedes Rumi +4
Functional development of affective and reward circuits, cognition and response inhibition later in life exhibits vulnerability periods during gestation and early childhood. Extens…
Autism spectrum disorder: a neuro-immunometabolic hypothesis of the developmental origins
Martin G. Frasch, Byung-Jun Yoon, Dario-Lucas Helbing +3
Fetal neuroinflammation and prenatal stress (PS) may contribute to lifelong neurological disabilities. Astrocytes and microglia, among the brain's non-neuronal glia cell population…
Fetus: the radar of maternal stress, a cohort study
Silvia M. Lobmaier, Alexander Mueller, Camilla Zelgert +10
Objective: We hypothesized that prenatal stress (PS) exerts lasting impact on fetal heart rate (fHR). We sought to validate the presence of such PS signature in fHR by measuring co…
