Article. The research/article indicates that childhood trauma can not only impact the current generation, but future generations. Biochemical signals are sent to the germ cells, modifying the expression of some genes and/or the DNA structure.
Traumatic experiences can have a lasting impact, so children that suffer through them can feel their effects for a lifetime. Work has also shown that trauma can change the way genes are expressed, through epigenetics. Epigenetic changes do not alter the sequence of genes but they alter the biochemistry of DNA, and these changes are sometimes passed down to future generations through germ cells. Scientists have been working to learn more about how traumatic events get embedded in the genetic code of germ cells.
âIn a world first, a âcold-shockâ protein has been found in the blood of regular winter swimmers at Londonâs Parliament Hill Lido.â
âThe protein has been shown to slow the onset of dementia and even repair some of the damage it causes in mice.â
âProf Giovanna Mallucci, who runs the UK Dementia Research Instituteâs Centre at the University of Cambridge, says the discovery could point researchers towards new drug treatments which may help hold dementia at bay.â
Swimmers at a London lido aid understanding of what cold does to the body.
