Study was done on rats which showed that high-touch mothering increased the brain’s production of an immune system molecule called Interleukin-10 which make these rats better able to resist the temptation of a dose of morphine much later in life.
The brains of the rat pups who experienced high-touch mothering (by natural variation) were found to have more active genes for producing IL-10, as much as producing 4 times of IL-10.
