Abstract
ⶠContusion injury to the medial frontal cortex produces acute changes in behaviors consistent with sickness behaviors (e.g., grooming, food intake, weight maintenance and exploratory locomotor activity) ⶠSickness behaviors might not respond to exogenous progesterone (4 mg/kg) in male rats. ⶠProgesterone's influence on functional recovery could vary depending on the dose and time after injury when behavioral or anatomical changes are measured.
