  • Publication number: 20220087964
    Abstract: Interpretation: This is the first ever report to uncover a tangible lipidomic basis by which maternal emotional well-being may influence fetal neurodevelopment and the later risk for psychopathology. This novel insight points to the potential utility of nutritional approaches among pregnant women with high levels of depressive symptoms in the prevention of offspring risk for later socio-emotional behavioral problems predictive of future psychopathology. Such a novel approach is particularly pertinent in light of the preference to avoid pharmacological interventions such as anti-depressant medications during pregnancy.
