Convulsions from combined pinealectomy and parathyroidectomy were examined in rats treated as neonates with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). Injection of 6-OHDA caused a significant reduction in the average latency to onset of clonictonic convulsions. Moreover, of the 6-OHDA-treated rats which convulsed,

Young adult and adult rats whose cerebellum was focally irradiated with a variable number of daily doses of 200 r X-ray during infancy were tested for spontaneous locomotion, in activity wheels, for muscular strength, in a weight-pulling apparatus, and, for skill in coordination, in a rope-climbing
## Abstract Previous reports have recently shown the prototypic neurotoxicant, lead, to induce apoptosis in the brains of developing organisms. In the current study, timedβpregnant rats were exposed to lead acetate (0.2% in the drinking water) 24 h following birth at postnatal day 1 (PND 1). Dams a
p-Chlorophenylalanine (pCPA) was administered to male and female rats on the 2nd and 3rd (20 mg/kg) and on the 5th and 6th (100 mg/kg) postnatal day. The display of spontaneous and hormone induced adult sexual behaviour, the onset of puberty in the females, and the effect of the neonatal drug inject
The levels of mRNAs encoding for the two isoforms of glutamate decarboxylase, GAD65 and GAD67, were measured in subpopulations of striatal neurons in adult rats depleted of dopamine as neonates with 6-OHDA and chronically injected with vehicle or with the dopamine receptor agonists apomorphine or SK
