Abstract:Lead (Pb) is an environmental neurotoxic metal. Chronic Pb exposure causes behavioral changes in humans and rodents, such as dysfunctional learning and memory. Nevertheless, it is not clear whether Pb exposure disrupts the neural circuit. Thus, here we aim at investigating the effects the chronic Pb exposure on neural-behavioral and neural circuits in mice from prenatal to postnatal day (PND) 63. Pregnant mice and their male offspring were treated with Pb (150 ppm) until postnatal day 63. In this study, severa… Show more
