Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Summary

Adult rabbits were given a 10% solution of lead acetate (0.025 gm per 1 kg of the body weight) per os daily during a month (in the 1st series of experiments) and during 3 months (in the 2nd series of experiments).

The animals were observed for 3–6 months.

The destructive changes in synapses became most noticeable 1 or 2 months after the beginning of the experiment. Three to 6 months later the regenerating synapses in the survived animals were observed in addition to the destructive changes of the pericellular apparatus.
