Sex- and OGG1-dependent reversal of in utero ethanol-initiated changes in postnatal behaviour by neonatal treatment with the histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) in oxoguanine glycosylase 1 (Ogg1) knockout mice.

Abstract excerpt

Oxoguanine glycosylase 1 (OGG1) is both a DNA repair enzyme and an epigenetic modifier. We assessed behavioural abnormalities in OGG1-deficient progeny exposed once in utero to a low dose of ethanol (EtOH) and treated postnatally with a global histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A (TSA). The goal of this study was to determine if neurodevelopmental disorders initiated in the fetal brain by in utero...
