Effect of ethanol on rat brain polyphosphoinositides. 1984

I R Shah, and S Uma, and C V Ramakrishnan, and G Hauser

Female rats were allowed to consume ethanol during gestation and lactation, and brain polyphosphoinositides of the 21-day-old pups were quantified. Ethanol intake prevented the disappearance of the metabolically labile pools of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bis-phosphate, which are rapidly degraded in the control group. In contrast, preweaning undernutrition left the size of these pools virtually unchanged, indicating a differential effect of the two nutritional regimens.

D007774 Lactation The processes of milk secretion by the maternal MAMMARY GLANDS after PARTURITION. The proliferation of the mammary glandular tissue, milk synthesis, and milk expulsion or let down are regulated by the interactions of several hormones including ESTRADIOL; PROGESTERONE; PROLACTIN; and OXYTOCIN.

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
