Abstract

Close
- The effect of neonatal brain infection of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) on the development of sensorimotor function in the rat was investigated using an acoustic startle paradigm. Intracerebral inoculation of HSV-1 at day 2 after birth, but not at day 4, caused a significant delay in the development of prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle. A decrease in prepulse inhibition was shown at 37, 46 and 58 days of age in these rats compared to control rats. No evidence was obtained for other behavioural dysfunctions such as differences in sensorimotor reactivity, sensorimotor response habituation, spontaneous locomotor activity, rearing activity or stereotyped behaviour. Prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle is an accepted model of sensorimotor gating in the CNS, a function which has been shown diminished in schizophrenic persons. The present results suggest that early viral infections during a neurone-susceptible period may contribute to the development of this deficit.
