Sympathetic neurons were dissociated from the SCG of perinatal (E21 to PN1) Holtzmann rats (Harlan Sprague-Dawley, Rockford, IL) according to previously described methods [ 59 ] . Cells were plated onto glass coverslips (for immunocytochemical and morphological studies) or 35 mm plastic culture dishes (for Western blot analyses) precoated with 100 μg/ml poly-D-lysine (Sigma, St. Louis, MO).
If the vascular LHR expression represents a barrier for hCG transport from chorionic villi to the fetal blood (see above), lack of this barrier may cause high levels of fetal hCG resulting in perinatal morbidity and mortality [ 63 ] , regardless of normal or abnormal hCG production.
HIV testing has too often focused on testing of women in a perinatal setting rather than universal testing in routine clinical care.
This resembles high LHR expression in first trimester placenta [ 28 ] , which is a source of high hCG levels [ 59 ] . Yet, hCG levels fall during the second trimester, and elevated maternal midtrimester hCG is associated with higher rates of maternal and neonatal complications (pregnancy-induced hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and perinatal death) [ 60 61 62 63 ] .
There is a possible explanation in light of the gender-specific differences observed in callosal size [ 24 ] coupled with the fact that prenatal exposure to EtOH causes feminization of male rats and defeminization of female rats [ 12 25 26 ] . There is a hormonal influence on the developing commissural pathway that could be disrupted by a number of EtOH-induced aberrations in hormone activity, such as the diminished perinatal surge of testosterone observed in EtOH-exposed male fetal rats [ 27 ] . The EtOH-induced attenuation of the testosterone surge eliminated the normal sex difference in rat callosal size.
