## Abstract The levels of mRNAs for the subunits of Ξ±βaminoβ3βhydroxyβ5βmethylβ4βisoxazole propionate (AMPA)βselective glutamate receptors (GluRβ1, β2, β3, β4) in the rat hippocampus during aging were measured by Northern blotting. The distribution of these receptors was also examined at the protei
ceptibility to propetamphos toxicity. Female rats presented with overt signs of organophosphate intoxication, whereas males were only slightly effected. The observed gender-related clinical difference in susceptibility to toxicity suggests that there may be a difference in the extent of elimination
Noradrenergic postganglionic sympathetic innervation of the spleen in 8-month-old (adult) and 27-monthold (aged) Fischer 344 (F344) rats was examined using fluorescence histochemistry for catecholamines coupled with stereologic point-counting analysis for quantitation of noradrenergic varicosities.
