Parental experience of a risky environment leads to improved offspring growth rate

Summary
Female laboratory mice were injected with lipopolysaccharides before mating to provide constant information on the potential infectious risk of the environment, and offspring from immune-challenged parents that suffered the most from inflammation grew at a faster rate than offspring from low suffering parents.
