Influences of different developmental periods of taurine supplements on synaptic plasticity in hippocampal CA1 area of rats following prenatal and perinatal lead exposure

Table 1 Lead concentration in the hippocampus of P18–25 rats

Groups	Con (n = 8)	Lead (n = 10)	Con+Tau (n = 8)	Lead+PW-Tau (n = 7)
Lead concentration in hippocampus(μg/g)	0.357 ± 0.118	1.237 ± 0.554^a	0.480 ± 0.148	0.654 ± 0.144^b

All the values are expressed as mean ± SEM; the number of experiments is shown in brackets (n =); ^a significantly different from Con group (p < 0.01); ^b significantly different from Lead group (p < 0.05) and statistically indistinguishable from Con group (p > 0.05). One-way ANOVA with the Bonferroni post hoc test were used for statistical analysis.
