Abstract:
In the present study, we tried to examine whether the 2-deoxy-D-[14C]glucose (2-DG) technique is useful to investigate the metabolic activity of fetal rat brain in the maternal uterus. The result shows that metabolic mapping of the fetal brain was clearly obtained by means of the 2-DG technique.
