A novel mode of communication between blood and the germline for the inheritance of paternal experiences
2019-06-06
Abstract excerpt
In many species, environmental stimuli can affect the germline and contribute to phenotypic changes in the offspring, without altering the genetic code 1–5 . So far, little is known about which biological signals can link exposure to germ cells. Using a mouse model of postnatal trauma with transgenerational effects, we show that exposure alters lipid-based metabolites in blood of males and their non-exposed offsp...
