14 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Preterm infants face challenges to feed orally, which may lead to failure to thrive. Oral feeding skill development requires intact neurobehaviors. Early life stress results in DNA methylation of NR3C1 and HSD11B2, which may disrupt neurobehaviors. Yet, the extent to which early life stress impairs oral feeding skill development and the biomechanism whereby this occurs remains unknown. Our team is...
