Article Synopsis
- The embryonic stage is a critical period for congenital abnormalities, with the central nervous system being particularly vulnerable to genetic, environmental, and epigenetic factors.
- A study investigated the impact of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) on neuroinflammation in offspring from pregnant mice, exposing them to cigarette smoke and assessing the effects on their immune response.
- Results showed that mouse pups exposed to ETS had increased proinflammatory cytokines and decreased cell viability, suggesting that ETS may worsen neuroinflammation-related conditions later in life.
