Abstract excerpt

We have reported that ethanol administration during early neuroembryogenesis significantly alters neuronal phenotypic expression. In addition, previous findings have indicated that ethanol may interfere with the neurotrophic effects of NGF. In this study, we examined the cholinergic neuronal resp...
