Environ Health Perspect. 2006 Oct;114(10):1542-6.

OBJECTIVES: We exposed neonatal rats to daily doses of diazinon or parathion on postnatal days (PND) 1-4 and evaluated 5HT receptors and the 5HT transporter in brainstem and forebrain on PND5, focusing on doses of each agent below the maximum tolerated dose and spanning the threshold for cholinesterase inhibition: 0.5, 1, or 2 mg/kg for diazinon, and 0.02, 0.05, and 0.1 mg/kg for parathion.

Chlorpyrifos and diazinon both induced tryptophan hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme for 5HT biosynthesis, but chlorpyrifos had a greater effect, and both agents suppressed expression of 5HT transporter genes, effects that would tend to augment extracellular 5HT.

We then evaluated the effects on 5HT (1A) and 5HT (2) receptors, and on the 5HT transporter in cerebral cortical regions and the brainstem in adolescence through adulthood.
