Abstract

Neurodevelopmental disorders have been associated with multiple causes especially, genetic a nd environmental -nutritional, infectious, toxic, traumatic and psychosocial stress among others- that in general do not operate alone, but interact with each other. Of special interest is to identify the mechanism(s) that lead to these disorders. Inflammation and epigenetic changes may play a common end for many forms of environmental risk.

Los trastornos del neurodesarrollo, se han asociado con múltiples causas, especialmente genéticas y ambientales ―nutricionales, infecciosas, tóxicas, traumáticas y estrés psicosocial, entre otras― que en general interactúan entre sí. De especial interés es identificar el/los factores que contribuyen a estos trastornos. Factores ambientales que están relacionados con inflamación y cambios epigenéticos pueden ser una vía común final.

Keywords: environmental toxics; epigenetics; inflammation; neurodevelopment; nutrition; psychosocial adversity.
