The availability of choline during the prenatal period influences neural and cognitive development. Here we report that choline supplementation during a six-day gestational period protects against neurodegeneration in the posterior cingulate and retrosplenial cortices of adult female rats produced by systemic administration of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist dizocilpine (MK-801). These data show that availability of choline during a brief prenatal period diminishes vulnerability to neurotoxicity in adult offspring.
