For instance, the timing of elevated maternal anxiety during pregnancy and related prenatal exposure to higher levels of cortisol in utero has been shown to be protective of mental health and neurodevelopment in infancy [74], and newborn DNA methylation has been linked with infant cortisol response (glucocorticoid receptor gene methylation) [75] and infant neurodevelopment (LINE-1 methylation) [76]. Here, NR3C1 is linked to Anxiety.
