Regulatory T‐Cells During Pregnancy Relate to Women's Own Childhood History of Microbial Exposure
OBJECTIVES: Previous studies found that children with siblings, farm residence, and other proxies of greater microbial contacts had lower rates of hyper-responsive immune disorders. Yet, scientific debate persists regarding whether the human immune system is educated in early life primarily as a function of pathogenic or benign microbial exposures, or both. Furthermore, pregnancy relies on women's intrinsic immunosuppressive function, yet it rema…
Association of pica with cortisol and inflammation among Latina pregnant women
Pica, the urge to consume items generally not considered food, such as dirt, raw starch, and ice, are particularly common among pregnant women. However, the biology of pica in pregnancy is not well understood. Therefore, this study aimed to assess how pica relates to endocrine stress and immune biomarkers in a cohort of pregnant Latina women in Southern California. Thirty‐four women completed a structured pica questionnaire. Maternal urinary cort…
What Do Your Neighbors Think About You? How Perceived Neighbor Attitudes Toward Latinos Influence Mental Health Among a Pregnant Latina Cohort
Latina women living in the USA experience disproportionately higher rates of psychological distress compared to their non-Latina White counterparts. Poor maternal mental health during pregnancy can contribute to intergenerational mental health disparities. Through this pathway, mothers' experiences, environments, and exposures (henceforth "exposures") during pregnancy become biologically embodied and can negatively affect the fetus and life-long …
An evolutionary perspective on the association between grandmother-mother relationships and maternal mental health among a cohort of pregnant Latina women
How prenatal cortisol levels relate to grandmother‐mother relationships among a cohort of Latina women
INTRODUCTION: As part of the human reproductive strategy, mothers receive childcare assistance from others. For kin, allomothers are adaptively incentivized to provide assistance due to inclusive fitness benefits. Previous studies across a broad range of populations identify grandmothers as particularly consistent allomothers. Minimal attention has been paid to the possibility that allomothers may begin investing in offspring quality during the p…
Sociopolitical stressors are associated with psychological distress in a cohort of Latina women during early pregnancy
Research suggests that the 2016 US election was a potential stressor among Latinos residing in the United States. Sociopolitical stressors targeted toward ethnic minority communities and become embodied through psychosocial distress. The current study investigates if and how sociopolitical stressors related to the 45th President, Donald Trump, and his administration are associated with psychological distress in early pregnancy of Latina women liv…
Maternal grandmothers buffer the effects of ethnic discrimination among pregnant Latina mothers
Ethnic discrimination during pregnancy is linked to maternal psychological distress, adverse birth outcomes and increased offspring morbidity and mortality. An evolutionary perspective reframes offspring health issues as a risk to maternal fitness. We argue that kin may be evolutionarily motivated to buffer psychosocial stressors for the mother during pregnancy. Previously, we found that the relationship of a pregnant woman with her own mother (f…
