A novel model of pre-pregnancy particulate matter exposure and house dust mite-induced maternal allergen-induced airway inflammation leading to altered maternal immune activation and increased neuroimmune responses in the offspring

Abstract Maternal immune activation (MIA) through infection, toxic exposure, or chronic inflammatory disease has been linked with an increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in offspring, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or schizophrenia. Previously we have shown that...
