Abstract

Changes in behaviour relevant to the vestibular system were studied in Long-Evans rats which were fertilized, born and housed in 2 acceleration of gravity for 4 months and thereafter exposed to 1 acceleration of gravity, and expression of Fos protein in the brain stem was examined.

Key words: hypergravity;rotation;vestibular system;Fos
