Abstract
The influence of fluorine administration on central nervous system’s (CNS) performances in female mice treated during gestation with two distinct doses of sodium fluoride (NaF): 0.25 mg and 0.50 mg. The research extended also to offspring (generation 1 – F1), treated with NaF in allopathic (0.25 and 0.50 mg), homeopathic (7CH) or with the association between the two types (allopathic and homeopathic) of doses. CNS performance modification was also assessed in the second generation offspring (F2), in which fluorine was exclusively taken from ascendant generations. Evaluation of CNS activity was performed by determining clearing time in classic maze (CM) at several time intervals (roughly 21 days between determinations). Experimental results showed that, in young offspring (1 – F1) from ascendants treated with the same substance, CNS performances in investigative capacity are influenced depending on dose, gender and age. Similar effect was recorded for homeopathic remedy 7CH for which the influence on CNS performance is strongly correlated to the stage of physical development of offspring and to doses of NaF administered to ascendants. The results of pharmacological tests correlate strongly to modifications noted during anatomical pathology examination of cerebral cortex.

Effects of chronic fluoride exposure on object recognition memory and mRNA expression of SNARE complex in hippocampus of male mice
This study aimed to investigate the effects of long-term fluoride exposure on object recognition memory and mRNA expression of soluble N-ethylmaleimidesensitive fusion protein attachment protein receptors (SNARE) complex (synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25), vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (VAMP-2), and syntaxin 1A) in the hippocampus of male mice. Sixty sexually matured

Psychopharmacology of fluoride: a review
Although the blood-brain barrier is relatively impermeable to fluoride, it does not pose an absolute barrier and fluoride has the ability to enter the brain. The literature was examined to assess the quality of the evidence for cerebral impairment occurring due to exposure to fluoride from therapeutic or environmental sources.

Effect of fluorosis on mice learning and memory behaviors and brain SOD activity and MDA content
Objective: Explore the brain mechanism of the effect of fluorosis on learning and memory behavior. Method: A method combining behavioral observation and biochemical testing was used to study the effects of long-term drinking different concentrations of sodium fluoride on mouse learning and memory behavior and changes in content of brain

Gut microbiota perturbations and neurodevelopmental impacts in offspring rats concurrently exposure to inorganic arsenic and fluoride.
Many “hot spot” geographic areas across the world with drinking water co-contaminated with inorganic arsenic (iAs) and fluoride (F-), two of the most common natural contaminants in drinking water. Both iAs and F- are known neurotoxins and affect neurodevelopment of children. However, very few studies have investigated the neurodevelopmental effects

Pathological changes in the tissues of rats (albino) and monkeys (macaca radiata) in fluorine toxicosis
1. Stomach, duodenum, small intestine, kidney, liver, spleen, skin, heart, aorta, lungs, brain, pancreas, adrenals, thyroid and parathyroid of rats and monkeys suffering from chronic fluorosis have been histologically examined. 2. Fluorine has not been found to have any effect on the heart muscle, aorta, skin and parathyroids, whereas it has

Fluoride's Effect on Fetal Brain
The human placenta does not prevent the passage of fluoride from a pregnant mother's bloodstream to the fetus. As a result, a fetus can be harmed by fluoride ingested pregnancy. Based on research from China, the fetal brain is one of the organs susceptible to fluoride poisoning. As highlighted by the excerpts

Fluoride's Direct Effects on Brain: Animal Studies
The possibility that fluoride ingestion may impair intelligence and other indices of neurological function is supported by a vast body of animal research, including over 40 studies that have investigated fluoride's effects on brain quality in animals. As discussed by the National Research Council, the studies have consistently demonstrated that fluoride, at widely varying concentrations, is toxic to the brain.

Fluoride Affects Learning & Memory in Animals
An association between elevated fluoride exposure and reduced intelligence has now been observed in 65 IQ studies. Although a link between fluoride and intelligence might initially seem surprising or random, it is actually consistent with a large body of animal research. This animal research includes the following 45 studies (out
