In humans, both the HPA system and the autonomic nervous system show developmental changes in infancy, with the HPA axis becoming organized between 2 and 6 months of age and the autonomic nervous system demonstrating relative stability by 6
to 12 months of age.63 The HPA axis in particular has been shown
to be highly responsive
to child - caregiver interactions, with sensitive caregiving programming the HPA axis
to become an effective physiological regulator of
stress and insensitive caregiving promoting hyperreactive or hyporeactive HPA systems.17 Several animal models as well as human studies also support the connection between caregiver experiences in early postnatal life and alterations of autonomic nervous system balance.63 - 65 Furthermore, children who have a history of sensitive caregiving are more likely
to demonstrate optimal affective and
behavioral strategies for coping with
stress.66, 67 Therefore, children with histories of supportive, sensitive caregiving in early development may be better able
to self - regulate their physiological, affective, and
behavioral responses to environmental stressors and, consequently, less likely
to manifest disturbed HPA and autonomic reactivity that put them at risk for
stress - related illnesses such as asthma.

These toxic
stress - induced changes in brain structure and function mediate, at least in part, the well - described relationship between adversity and altered life - course trajectories (see Fig 1).4, 6 A hyper - responsive or chronically activated
stress response contributes
to the inflammation and changes in immune function that are seen in those chronic, noncommunicable diseases often associated with childhood adversity, like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cirrhosis, type II diabetes, depression, and cardiovascular disease.4, 6 Impairments in critical SE, language, and cognitive skills contribute
to the fractured social networks often associated with childhood adversity, like school failure, poverty, divorce, homelessness, violence, and limited access
to healthcare.4, 19,58 — 60 Finally,
behavioral allostasis, or the adoption of potentially maladaptive behaviors
to deal or cope with chronic
stress, begins
to explain the association between childhood adversity and unhealthy lifestyles, like alcohol, tobacco, and substance abuse, promiscuity, gambling, and obesity.4, 6,61 Taken together, these 3 general classes of altered developmental outcomes (unhealthy lifestyles, fractured social networks, and changes in immune function) contribute
to the development of noncommunicable diseases and encompass many of the morbidities associated epidemiologically with childhood adversity.4, 6

Specifically, the ACE Study model relies strongly on the idea that adverse childhood experiences create a burden of psychological
stress that changes behavior, cognitions, emotions, and physical functions in ways that promote subsequent health problems and illness.22 Among the hypothesized pathways, adverse childhood experiences lead
to depression and posttraumatic
stress disorder, which in turn can lead
to substance abuse, sleep disorders, inactivity, immunosuppression, inflammatory
responses, and inconsistent health care use, possibly leading
to other medical conditions later in life.23, 24 Therefore, childhood
behavioral and emotional symptoms very likely represent a crucial mediator linking adverse childhood experiences and the longer term health - related problems found in the ACE substudies.
