Title | Intergenerational trauma transmission is associated with brain metabotranscriptome remodeling and mitochondrial dysfunction |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to examine the distinctive behavioral impacts and neurobiological mechanisms of in utero exposure alone (prenatal one-hit stress) versus impaired maternal care alone (postnatal one-hit stress) or combined exposure (prenatal and postnatal two-hits stress). Pregnant Swiss Webster mice were divided into the following 2 groups: (1) control group (no stress), and (2) prenatal stress group. On gestational day 17, the pregnant mice in the prenatal stress group were exposed to a predator scent for 1 h on each of four consecutive days in a separate cage under the fume hood and were then returned to their home cage. Male mice were tested from postnatal week 8 to week 13 with a battery of behavioral paradigms. Tissues of one brain hemisphere were collected from adult mice, and metabolic profiling was performed based on a LC-MS platform (n = 5/per group). |
