A new study maps how prenatal stress alters immune signalling in the developing brain at a level of detail not seen before ...

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, with limited efficacy of current therapies in advanced cases. As a key risk factor for HCC, liver ...

Explore how stressors during pregnancy influence foetal brain development and the impact on future neurodevelopmental ...

Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production, a process that fails in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Abstract: Spatial transcriptomics (ST) are emerging technologies that reveal spatial distributions of gene expressions within tissues, serving as important ways to uncover biological insights. However ...

Maternal gut–immune stress shapes fetal brain development differently in males and females, revealing sex-specific pathways ...

In a paper published in the journal Nature Neuroscience, researchers have mapped how stress events during pregnancy can affect the neuroimmune landscape of the developing foetal brain.

Disrupting maternal gut-immune axis perturbed immune networks in developing mouse brains, revealing potential mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders.
