Abstract

Administration of insulin and adrenocorticotropic hormone to 1-, 2-, and 3-day-old rats leads to an increase in the RNA and total protein contents of cortical neurons, while administration of adrenocorticotropic hormone alone increases the number of dying neurons in layer V of the cortex.
