Stress Hormones and Human Developmental Plasticity: Lessons From Tadpoles
Introduction Phenotypic expression depends on the interaction between the genotype (nature) and the environment (nurture). This is true for all living organisms, but the physiologic mechanisms that mediate this interaction remain poorly understood. Very early developmental events generally are regarded as being buffered from environmental effects (ie, they are canalized), but it is now clear th...
متن کاملDevelopmental plasticity
Developmental plasticity - the concept that adaptation to changing and unfavorable environmental conditions are possible but may come at the price of compromised health potentials - has evolutionary grounding as it facilitates survival but dissents with fundamental evolutionary principles in that it may advance the lesser fit. It is an important cornerstone of the Developmental Origins of Healt...
متن کاملDevelopmental plasticity
Early life constraints affecting phenotype in later life is a trend consistently observed across different species. Of particular relevance to evolutionary medicine are the effects of intra-uterine growth leading to diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and other age-related disorders. The broader question of conditions under which such developmental plasticity or predictive adaptive r...
متن کاملDevelopmental plasticity
Early life experiences can have profound and persistent effects on traits expressed throughout the life course, with consequences for later life behavior, disease risk, and mortality rates. The shaping of later life traits by early life environments, known as 'developmental plasticity', has been well-documented in humans and non-human animals, and has consequently captured the attention of both...
متن کاملPrenatal Mercuric Chloride Exposure Causes Developmental Deficits in Rat Cortex
Introduction: Environmental pollution with heavy metals such as mercury is a major health problem. Growing studies on the field have shown the deleterious effects of mercury on human and nonhuman nervous system, especially in infants, however the effects of prenatal exposure to mercuricchloride on cortical development are not yet well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the eff...
