Prenatal Stress Increases the Hypothalamo‐Pituitary‐Adrenal Axis Response in Young and Adult Rats

Abstract

Prenatal stress is considered as an early epigenetic factor able to induce long‐lasting alterations in brain structures and functions. It is still unclear whether prenatal stress can induce long‐lasting modifications in the hypothalamo‐pituitary‐adrenal axis. To test this possibility the effects of restraint stress in pregnant rats during the third week of gestation were investigated in the functional properties of the hypothalamo‐pituitary‐adrenal axis and hippocampal type I and type II corticosteroid receptors in the male offspring at 3, 21 and 90 days of age. Plasma corticosterone was significantly elevated in prenatally‐stressed rats at 3 and 21 days after exposure to novelty. At 90 days of age, prenatally‐stressed rats showed a longer duration of corticosterone secretion after exposure to novelty. No change was observed for type I and type II receptor densities 3 days after birth, but both receptor subtypes were decreased in the hippocampus of prenatally‐stressed offspring at 21 and 90 days of life. These findings suggest that prenatal stress produces long term changes in the hypothalamo‐pituitary‐adrenal axis in the offspring.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
