Independent Maternal and Fetal Genetic Effects on Midgestational Circulating Levels of Environmental Pollutants

Independent Maternal and Fetal Genetic Effects on Midgestational Circulating Levels of Environmental Pollutants

Maternal exposure to environmental pollutants could affect fetal brain development and increase autism spectrum disorder (ASD) risk in conjunction with differential genetic susceptibility. Organohalogen congeners measured in maternal midpregnancy blood samples have recently shown significant, but ne...
