Perinatal Exposure to Low-Dose Bisphenol-A Disrupts the Structural and Functional Development of the Hypothalamic Feeding Circuitry.

abstract：:Two surges of PRL designated as nocturnal (N) and diurnal (D) are observed during early pregnancy. The present study was undertaken to determine the involvement of serotonin (5-HT) in regulating these PRL surges. On day 7 of pregnancy intracarotid catheters were implanted, and blood samples were obtained at 0200 and 0...
