This study investigated the influence of ethanol exposure throughout gestation on cholinergic development within the rat striatal region. Pregnant Long-Evans rats were maintained on three diets throughout gestation: A liquid diet in which ethanol accounted for 3 5 3 9 % of the total calories, a simi

## Abstract Stressful stimuli during pregnancy induce complex effects that influence the development of offspring. These effects can be prevented by environmental manipulations during the early postnatal period. Repeated restraint during the last week of pregnancy was used as a model of prenatal st
Nicotine is one of the most widely used toxins in the world today. Most addiction research relating to nicotine in particular, as well as opioids and alcohol, has concentrated on the cellular and molecular biology of the mammalian brain and on features of organ structure and physiology associated wi
To examine the effects of ethanol exposure on neural development, pregnant rats were fed a liquid diet in which 37.5% of the total caloric content was ethanol-derived. The developmental appearance of the messenger RNAs coding for preprosomatostatin, glial fibrillary acidic protein, and proteolipid p
## Background: Perfluorooctane sulfonate (pfos), found widely in wildlife and humans, is environmentally and metabolically stable. environmental pfos may be from its use as a surfactant, hydrolysis of perfluorooctanesulfonyl fluoride, and degradation of n-alkyl-perfluorooctanesulfonamide compounds
## Abstract Previous studies from this and other laboratories suggest that dopamine is decreased in selected brain regions of postnatal rats exposed to ethanol in utero. The present study expands previous work by examining the effects of in utero ethanol exposure on dopamine D~1~ and D~2~ binding s
