Abstract:
:Prenatal exposure to alcohol feminizes saccharin consumption patterns in adult male rats. To study the involvement of testosterone in this effect, testosterone propionate (TP) was administered to pregnant dams in an attempt to reverse that feminized saccharin consumption pattern in the male offspring. Female offspring were also studied to determine the effect of TP on saccharin preference in normal males and females. During the last week of gestation, dams were administered a liquid diet containing 35% ethanol derived calories, an isocaloric liquid diet containing no ethanol, or Purina Lab Chow. Half of the dams in each group received twice daily injections of TP, the other half were injected with the oil vehicle. Saccharin consumption of adult fetal alcohol exposed (FAE) males from dams administered oil or TP was significantly greater than controls, indicating that the feminized pattern of saccharin consumption of FAE males cannot be overcome with TP administration during the prenatal period. In controls, prenatal TP exposure alone was found to increase adult saccharin consumption in both sexes. Prenatal administration of TP was also found to markedly depress body weight of offspring of dams receiving the liquid diets compared to offspring from dams receiving the same diets plus oil injections. Body weights of offspring from TP or oil injected dams receiving the chow fed diets during pregnancy did not differ.
