Hudson Valley Integrative Health
Dr. Somer DelSignore, DNP, BC-PNP Root-cause Immune Dysfunction Expert. Pediatric Lyme, Autism, PANS

I treat the PANS, Lyme, Autoimmune Encephalopathy and Autism connection with root cause medicine providing comprehensive, integrative consultation for pediatric patients up to 26 years old afflicted chronic underlying infection, toxic exposures and immune imbalances. I also offer wellness consultations and IV therapy to help patients decrease inflammation and boost the immune system.

Autism and neurodivergent disorders are dynamic, multi factorial conditions. We focus heavily upon advanced age of the mother’s eggs (over 35 years) and her exposures.

What we don’t talk about is advanced PATERNAL age (ALSO over the age of 35).
Advanced age male s***m DNA changes leading to mutations in methylation, this contributes significantly to the neuro development of a baby. Every 10 yrs beyond the age of 35 adds to the risk significantly.
Mom’s eggs can play a role but it appears as though mom’s environmental exposures during pregnancy deliver the second insult, first being dad’s dna.
This may change the older man/younger woman dynamic surrounding conception?

I’ll delve a little into when I share my research presentation during the ILADS conference this Fall in San Antonio.
The floor is open for discussion.
For the men out there, are your providers having discussions surrounding this with you for family planning?
I propose men also should take a prenatal to support methylation and should also follow the advanced age rule that is fervently discussed with women by reproductive/ family planning providers.

Meet me in Fort Lauderdale this fall at the 2025 LymeBytes Symposium- a two-day deep dive into healing, hope and advocacy for Lyme and chronic illness

I’ll be speaking about tickborne and other vector borne diseases transmitted from mom to baby. We’ll discuss the current trends, symptom presentation and much more!

Knowledge and prevention are our best defense in preventing congenital vector borne diseases.
Mother’s to be and those planning a family should be tested for all Tickborne diseases prior to conception if possible. Mother’s to be should ask for testing as early as possible.
Specialty testing is best if you can swing it.

Borrelia Burgdorferi (Lyme Disease) and Bartonella can migrate across the placenta from mother to baby using the special cells that make up the inner wall lining of blood vessels and lymphatic vessels.

Bartonella can trigger structural rearrangements within the cells to trick the body and invades the host’s cells. It injects a protein substance that disrupts the tight junction. This breaks down the barrier defenses and allows the bug to easily pass through to the inner workings of the cells which can easily pass through the placenta and affect the growing baby.

Bartonella’s low inflammatory profile and intracellular lifestyle make it difficult to detect with standard diagnostics (e.g., blood cultures are often negative).

Borrelia utilizes a similar pathway to invade also utilizing endothelial cells, more specifically, trophoblasts (outer layer of cells that form the placenta)

Both Borrelia and Bartonella find the
Immuno-privileged placental niches may enable silent persistence of infection in the unborn baby.

Systemic infection may cause (not limited to):
Miscarriage
Stillbirth
Low birth weight and growth restriction
Neroinflammatory developments
Autism or autism like symptoms
Immune dysfunction

Babesia takes an entirely different root of invasion which you’ll see in a later post:)

Sulforaphane in high doses triggers heat shock response in the body. This improves proper protein folding, reducing oxidative stress and enhancing the protection of cells against amyloid-beta, a protein found in Alzheimer’s disease.
Studies of children with autism who take high doses of sulforaphane showed improvements in cognition, social interaction, executive processing and mood regulation.

I use broccoli seed extract along with other NrF2 activators and BDNF support to improve cognition.

25/05/2025

Not just Bartonella but Borrelia strains, babesia and viruses contribute to congenital transmission. We have 40 years of data demonstrating the ability of tickborne, vector borne illnesses crossing the placenta and infecting the fetus.
Moreover, the misdiagnosis of autism is leading to missed treatment opportunities.

This is the bulk of my practice. Children diagnosed with autism that also test positive for vector borne diseases do improve cognitively once the root cause is identified and the correct treatment is given.
I reframe autism as infectious triggers autoimmune encephalopathy.
