| Research Abstract |
This study aimed to establish effective tools for assessing the effect of endocrine-disrupting chemicals on brain development in cynomolgus monkey, because cynomolgus monkey is phylogenetically close to human. This study revealed that development of inhibitory neurotransmission system delayed by systemic reduction of thyroid hormone induced by thyroid hormone synthesis inhibitor (methimazole) injection from three to 60 days after birth, when neural development dramatically proceeded. And this study established some in vitro tools using neural cells derived from cynomolgus monkey for assessing the effect of endocrine-disrupting chemicals on brain development
