Long-term effects of gestational nicotine exposure and food-restriction on gene expression in the striatum of adolescent rats.

Gestational exposure to environmental toxins such as nicotine may result in detectable gene expression changes in later life. To investigate the direct toxic effects of prenatal nicotine exposure on later brain development, we have used transcriptomic analysis of striatal samples to identify gene ex...
