Postnatal changes of glutaminase activity in the brain of rat exposed to hypoxia in fetal period of prenatal ontogenesis

The impact of prenatal hypoxia in fetal period on activity of enzyme producer of the main exciting neurotransmitter - glutamate is investigated. Change of phosphate-activated glutaminase activity in various areas of cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum, mesencephalon and myelencephalon of rats at different stages of postnatal development is revealed.
