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…
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…
Patterns and Life Course Determinants of Black–White Disparities in Biological Age Acceleration
Despite the prominence of the weathering hypothesis as a mechanism underlying racialized inequities in morbidity and mortality, the life course social and economic determinants of Black–White disparities in biological aging remain inadequately understood. This study uses data from the Health and Retirement Study (n = 6,782), multivariable regression, and Kitagawa–Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition to assess Black–White disparities across three measures…
