The paper conducts a genetic analysis of immune biomarkers across pregnancy timepoints, identifying heritable and genome-wide significant associations and highlighting timepoint-specific and pregnancy-unique findings.

The paper identifies methylation changes in cell-free fetal DNA linked to maternal obesity and correlates them with infant brain and behavioral outcomes in macaques.

This study identifies transcriptomic changes in non-human primate brains exposed to maternal immune activation, revealing alterations in retrotransposition, synaptic connectivity, and myelination.

This study examines the effects of maternal immune activation on neurobehavioral development in rhesus monkey offspring, finding reduced gray matter volume in specific brain regions.

This study identifies transcriptomic and neuroanatomical changes in mouse embryos exposed to maternal immune activation, revealing altered neurodevelopmental timing and cortical development.

This study identifies variability factors in maternal immune activation models and shows baseline immune responsiveness predicts offspring outcomes.
