The exposure of 8 to 29-day-old mouse pups to midazolam (MDZ) produces the same type of histological alterations in the cerebral cortex as those caused in mice by exposure in utero to diazepam (DZ) from day 6 to 17 of gestation. Two groups of 10 each ICR (Harlan Mexico) strain male mice were injected: the first with a single daily MDZ dose (2.0 mg/kg/bw, s.

We investigated whether these changes are similar to those induced by prenatal exposure to diazepam (DZ). Two neonatal ICR-strain mouse groups were injected daily from day 8 to 29.
