Maternal Immune Activation and Autism in Offspring: What Is the Evidence for Causation?

22 Nov 2024

Abstract excerpt

The maternal immune activation hypothesis has gained attention over the past 2 decades as a potential contributor to the etiology of autism. This hypothesis posits that maternal conditions associated with inflammation during pregnancy may increase the risk of autism in offspring. Autism is highly heritable, and causal environmental contributors to autism largely remain elusive. We review studies on maternal...
