Folic acid alleviates gastric hypersensitivity
We investigated how folic acid (FA) impacts gastric hypersensitivity caused by prenatal stress. Through a series of experiments involving nerve recordings and molecular analysis, we found that FA significantly alleviated symptoms related to gastric hypersensitivity.

It worked by boosting the expression of DNMT1, which in turn reduced the activity of ASIC1, a key molecule involved in pain sensation. While promising, further research is essential as this study primarily focuses on rats. The findings may pave the way for potential treatments in humans.

We examined how late-gestation maternal supplementation with methyl donors impacts allergic sensitivity in offspring from pregnancies with restricted growth (IUGR).

Our study compared allergic responses in three groups of sheep: those from normal pregnancies, those from PR pregnancies without supplementation, and those whose mothers received the supplementation.

Interestingly, while the IUGR pregnancies showed protection against allergies, the methyl donor supplementation did not change this advantage. In fact, it resulted in more upper dermal mast cells but did not alter overall allergic reactions or birth size.

These findings indicate that while IUGR may limit allergy risk, adding methyl donors might potentially increase it instead.
