Abstract

Evidence links prenatal infection and stress with offspring adolescent depression. Our previous study found that markers of prenatal maternal inflammation (MI) were associated with two childhood outcomes, internalizing and externalizing symptoms, associated with increased risk of depression. The present study sought to investigate whether MI was associated with offspring adolescent depression and whether childhood psychiatric symptoms mediated this association. We also examined sex differences and timing of exposure.
