Dong Liu,Josie Diorio,Josie Diorio,Beth Tannenbaum,Beth Tannenbaum,Christian Caldji,Christian Caldji,Darlene D. Francis,Darlene D. Francis,Alison Freedman,Alison Freedman,Shakti Sharma,Shakti Sharma,Deborah Pearson,Deborah Pearson,Paul M. Plotsky,Paul M. Plotsky,Michael J. Meaney,Michael J. Meaney +18 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that maternal behavior serves to "program" hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal responses to stress in the offspring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nongenomic Transmission Across Generations of Maternal Behavior and Stress Responses in the Rat
TL;DR: Results of cross-fostering studies reported here indicate that variations in maternal care can serve as the basis for a nongenomic behavioral transmission of individual differences in stress reactivity across generations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal care, hippocampal synaptogenesis and cognitive development in rats.
TL;DR: The offspring of mothers that show high levels of pup licking and grooming and arched-back nursing showed increased expression of NMDA receptor subunit and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA, increased cholinergic innervation of the hippocampus and enhanced spatial learning and memory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal Care, Gene Expression, and the Development of Individual Differences in Stress Reactivity
TL;DR: Findings suggest that variations in parental care mediate, in part at least, the effects of environmental adversity on child development, and that maternal depression associated with environmental conditions not only compromises parent–child interactions, but also limits the efficacy of early intervention programs.
