Pregnant CD-1 mice were given 32 mg/kg of 3,4,3'',4''-tetrachlorobiphenyl (TCB) or corn oil vehicle by gavage on days 10-16 of gestation. At 1 yr, offspring were tested for spontaneous motor activity and then killed; dopamine (DA) levels and specific DA receptor binding were measured in corpus striatum. Mice exposed to TCB in utero had elevated levels of motor activity which were associated with decreased DA levels and DA receptor binding sites. In utero exposure to TCB might permanently alter development of striatal synapses.
