摘要
Female rats prenatally exposed to alcohol were tested at 35 days of age for susceptibility to pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced convulsions. There was a significant dose-response effect of PTZ. Contrary to expectations, alcohol-exposed females were slightly but still significantly less convulsion-prone than pair-fed controls. These results suggest prenatal alcohol exposure reduces the susceptibility to convulsions in rats.
