Prenatal maternal immune activation (MIA) is a risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder and Schizophrenia. The data presented here result from a study of how the gestational timing of MIA-exposure differentially impacts downstream development. They include longitudinal structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from weaning to adulthood, and behavioural testing in adolescence and adulthood on C57BL/6 mice exposed to MIA induced by the viral mimetic polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C), either early (gestational day GD9) or late (GD17) in gestation. More details concerning the data, methods, and results can be found in Guma et al., 2021: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biopsych.2021.03.017.
