Development of interlimb movement synchrony in the rat fetusGale A Kleven
Department of Psychology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
Behav Neurosci 118:835-44. 2004..Interlimb synchrony appears to be a robust method of quantifying fetal movement and may prove useful as a tool for assessing prenatal nervous system functioning...
Spontaneous motor activity in fetal and infant rats is organized into discrete multilimb boutsS R Robinson
Department of Psychology, University of Iowa, Iowa City 52242, USA
Behav Neurosci 114:328-36. 2000..These investigations provide a foundation for understanding the contributions of SMA to neuromuscular and motor development...
The serotonergic agonists quipazine, CGS-12066A, and alpha-methylserotonin alter motor activity and induce hindlimb stepping in the intact and spinal rat fetusMichele R Brumley
Laboratory of Comparative Ethogenesis, Department of Psychology, University of Iowa, Iowa City 52242, USA
Behav Neurosci 119:821-33. 2005..Quipazine and alpha-Me-5-HT also promoted hindlimb activity in spinal fetuses. Thus, stimulation of the fetal 5-HT system modulates motor activity at multiple levels of the developing central nervous system...
Prenatal methylazoxymethanol exposure alters evoked responses in fetal ratsGale A Kleven
Department of Psychology, University of Iowa, E11 Seashore Hall, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
Neurotoxicol Teratol 26:663-71. 2004..Together, these findings suggest that behavioral assessments of fetal motor coordination may be useful in identifying neural insult during prenatal development...
Opioid mediation of amniotic fluid effects on chemosensory responsiveness in the neonatal ratValerie Mendez-Gallardo
Department of Psychology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA, USA
Dev Psychobiol 52:740-54. 2010..These findings confirm developmental continuity between fetal and neonatal behavioral responses to AF and the ability of AF to induce activity at kappa receptors of the endogenous opioid system...
Facial wiping in the rat fetus: variation of chemosensory stimulus parametersMichele R Brumley
Laboratory of Comparative Ethogenesis, Department of Psychology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
Dev Psychobiol 44:219-29. 2004....
Opioid mediation of amniotic fluid effects on chemosensory responsiveness in the neonatal ratValerie Mendez-Gallardo
Department of Psychology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA
Dev Psychobiol 52:740-54. 2010..2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Dev Psychobiol 52: 740-754, 2010...
Conjugate limb coordination after experience with an interlimb yoke: evidence for motor learning in the rat fetusScott R Robinson
Department of Psychology University of Iowa, Iowa City, 52242, USA
Dev Psychobiol 47:328-44. 2005..These data argue that the rat fetus can respond to kinesthetic feedback resulting from variation in motor performance, which suggests that experience contributes to the development of coordinated motor behavior before birth...
