Abstract
⺠We examined sex differences in the long-term effects of perinatal anoxia. ⺠Anoxia produced sex-dependent effects on sensorimotor gating (males most impaired). ⺠Apomorphine-induced suppression of PPI was stronger in males than females. ⺠Dopamine systems in PFC and n. accumbens were also altered sex-dependently. ⺠Dopamine in amygdala was altered by anoxia similarly in males and females.
