| Abstract | Background: Widely utilized pesticides such as chlorpyrifos (CPF) can cause cognitive abnormalities, neurotransmitter disruptions and brain cytoarchitecture deficits in adulthood due to exposure in the prenatal period, but the mechanism underlying the development and maintenance of such neurotoxicity in embryonic neurogenesis remains largely unclear. Using embryonic neocortex slices, we investigated mitosis population constituents and characteristic interkinetic nuclear migration (INM) to evaluate the CPF effects on the proliferation process of neural progenitors. Methods: Gestational days (GD) 14 and GD 7.5–11.5 ICR dams were exposed to 5 mg kg−1 of CPF to investigate immediate toxicity and sustained toxicity. Proliferating nuclei were labeled with 50 mg kg−1 of Brdu at 1, 3, 6 and 9 hours before samples were collected. The mitoses count and Brdu positive nuclei (BPN) location were measured and analyzed in standard sections of the embryonic dorsolateral cortex. Results: CPF reduced the mitoses count in the primary progenitors but not in the secondary progenitors which are time sustained. CPF retarded BPN migration with a 6–9 μm delay of the relative location in the immediate groups and a 3–6 μm delay in the sustained ones. CPF had no or little effects on the global mitoses count and BPN count. Conclusion: Prenatal CPF exposure disrupts the proliferation process of primary progenitors in the embryonic dorsolateral cortex immediately and with sustained effects, which may contribute to explain the toxicity mechanism in early neurogenesis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
