Adult male and female rats exposed prenatally to morphine show decreased susceptibility to GABA-regulated seizures. 3. Prenatally morphine-exposed, adult male rats are more sensitive to excitatory amino acid receptor-mediated seizures than control males, control females, or morphine-exposed females.
