Abstract:

To investigate the effects of MR prenatal exposure on the ability of learning and memory, we examined the behavior changes of rats after treatment and its molecular mechanism. Fourteen pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, each with 7 mother rats. The experimental animals were exposed to MR between days 12 and 18 of gestation for 10 min a day. After birth, all male litters were randomly divided into an MRI-scanning group (experimental group) and a control group. And Morris Water Maze (MWM) tasks were tested at 1st-, 2nd- and 5th- month after birth. The results showed that the MR exposed rats at the age of 2 months spent less time than the non-exposed ones in the platform quadrant during probe trial test, means a minor "reference memory" deficit for the treatment animals. Then the 2 months groups were selected for microarray and Western blot to detect the molecular mechanism of behavior deficit. Here we found that only 12 genes among all the tested were up or down-regulated. Western bolt showed that CaMK II beta was changed significantly. We suggested that the potential impairment of spatial learning and memory induced by prenatal MR exposure was aged dependence, which may mediated by regulation of CaMK II beta.
