Paternal social enrichment effects on maternal behavior and offspring growth.
Paternal environmental experiences are significant predictors of developmental outcomes in offspring and can occur even in the absence of paternal care. Although there has been a recent focus on the role of environmentally induced changes in the male germline in producing these effects, the potential mediating role of mothers has not been investigated. A role for mothers in the transmission of ...
متن کاملContrasting Effects of Maternal and Paternal Age on Offspring Intelligence
Both maternal and paternal ages are increasing in the developed world. The average age of mothers at time of childbirth has increased from 26.4 years in 1974 to 29.3 years in 2002, while the average age of fathers has increased from 29.2 years in 1980 to 32.1 years in 2002 [1]. This increase in the average parental age is most likely due to the societal trend for couples to delay starting a fam...
متن کاملMaternal modulation of paternal effects on offspring development
The paternal transmission of environmentally induced phenotypes across generations has been reported to occur following a number of qualitatively different exposures and appear to be driven, at least in part, by epigenetic factors that are inherited via the sperm. However, previous studies of paternal germline transmission have not addressed the role of mothers in the propagation of paternal ef...
متن کاملPaternal Behavior and Offspring Aggression
Aggression can have a critical impact on the functioning of societies. Some aspects of aggression have received considerable attention, such as links between parenting behavior and offspring aggression in humans. Although acknowledged as being important to the understanding of human aggression, animal aggression has been relatively unstudied. Recent mammalian animal research is emerging that ad...
متن کاملEffects of advanced paternal age on trajectories of social behavior in offspring.
Our study is the first investigation of the effects of advanced paternal age (APA) on the developmental trajectory of social behavior in rodent offspring. Given the strong epidemiological association between APA and sexually dimorphic neurodevelopmental disorders that are characterized by abnormalities in social behavior (autism, schizophrenia), we assessed sociability in male and female inbred...
