NMDA-R1 mRNA levels increase from P10 to P20 but do not change during puberty. NMA-R1 mRNA levels were analyzed in rats from P10 to P41 treated with NMA or saline (control). See Figure 2 for description of axes and treatment. NMDA-R1 mRNA levels increased significantly between P10 and P20; no further changes were observed during development. Treatment with NMA had no effect on NMDA-R1 mRNA levels in the POA-AH. *p < 0.05 versus all other days; n = 6–8/group.
