Exogenous NGF alters a critical motor period in rat striatum

IN previous studies we found that there is a critical period during rat postnatal development when motor training starting at age 30 days (P30) but not before or after this age, induces a bilateral lifetime drop in B(max) of the muscarinic radioligand [3H]QNB in striatum. We examined the possibility...
