17589599 Slotkin TA, Seidler FJ, Fumagalli F: Exposure to organophosphates reduces the expression of neurotrophic factors in neonatal rat brain regions: similarities and differences in the effects of chlorpyrifos and diazinon on the fibroblast growth factor superfamily.

19368821 Slotkin TA, Seidler FJ: Protein kinase C is a target for diverse developmental neurotoxicants: transcriptional responses to chlorpyrifos, diazinon, dieldrin and divalent nickel in PC12 cells. Brain Res. 2009 Mar 31;1263:23-32. Epub 2009 Feb 5.

We compared two organophosphate insecticides (chlorpyrifos, diazinon) with an organochlorine (dieldrin) and a metal (Ni (2+)) for similarities and differences in their effects on gene expression encoding subtypes of protein kinase C and their modulators, a cell signaling cascade that integrates the actions of neurotrophic factors involved in brain development.

We administered chlorpyrifos and diazinon to neonatal rats on postnatal days 1-4 at doses devoid of systemic toxicity or growth impairment, and spanning the threshold for barely-detectable cholinesterase inhibition.
