In utero beta 2 adrenergic agonist exposure and adverse neurophysiologic and behavioral outcomes.

American journal of obstetrics and gynecology - 1 Dec 2009

Witter Frank R, Zimmerman Andrew W, Reichmann James P, Connors Susan L

Abstract excerpt

Beta 2 adrenergic receptor overstimulation during critical periods of prenatal development can induce a permanent shift in the balance of sympathetic-to-parasympathetic tone. This is a biologically plausible mechanism whereby beta 2 adrenergic agonists can induce functional and behavioral teratogenesis, which explains their association with increases in autism spectrum disorders, psychiatric disorders, poor...
