Consequences of Viral Infection and Cytokine Production During Pregnancy on Brain Development in Offspring

Consequences of Viral Infection and Cytokine Production During Pregnancy on Brain Development in Offspring

Infections during pregnancy can seriously damage fetal neurodevelopment by aberrantly activating the maternal immune system, directly impacting fetal neural cells. Increasing evidence suggests that these adverse impacts involve alterations in neural stem cell biology with long-term consequences for...
