Influence of maternal thyroid hormones during gestation on fetal brain development
Highlights • Thyroid hormones (THs) are crucial for key maturational processes during early brain development. • Maternal TH deficiency during pregnancy may result in impaired offspring cognitive development. • Gestational conditions related to stress may modulate maternal thyroid function.
