"Epigenetic germline inheritance: Effects of chronic, acute and internal stress"

Chronic and acute stress are major risk factors for the development of neuropsychiatric disorders later in life and sometimes effects even extend across generations. Modelling such scenario in mice has revealed a complex pattern of epigenetic alterations affecting the entire organism. It is started to unravel some mechanistic underpinnings and newly found potential implications for human neuro-developmental disease.
