At toxic doses in rats, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) caused injuries in blood vessels in the brain. 2. 2,4-D caused extravasations of the circulating Evans blue-albumin complex also in the spinal cord. 3. By contrast, potency in damaging cerebral vessels was almost non-existent with 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T). 4. None of the three chlorophenoxyacetic acids caused such cerebrovascular injuries in mice, guinea pigs, Syrian hamsters, rabbits and chickens.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002561 Cerebrovascular Disorders A spectrum of pathological conditions of impaired blood flow in the brain. They can involve vessels (ARTERIES or VEINS) in the CEREBRUM, the CEREBELLUM, and the BRAIN STEM.
