Abstract:
AIM: To discuss the mechanism of hyperbaric oxygen(HBO) therapy by assessing the changes of neural stem cells(NSCs),after hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD) in neonatal rats.METHODS: Seven-day-old SD rat pups were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group(CON,n=16),HIBD group(n=16),hyperbaric air group(HBA,n=16),and HBO group(n=16).The HIBD model was produced by permanent occlusion of left common carotid artery and was exposed to a mixture of 8% oxygen and 92% nitrogen for 2 h(at 37 ℃).HBA and HBO treatment was administered by placing pups in a chamber(2 ATA for 1 h) 1 h after hypoxia exposure and performed once daily for 7 days.BrdU immunohistochemistry was used to assess how the insult had affected NSCs in the SVZ of the lateral ventricle and DG of the hippocampus.The NSCs from the ipsilateral SVZs were isolated at 3 weeks recovery from hypoxia-ischemia(HI).The number of spheres was then counted as an index of the number of NSCs residing within the SVZ.RESULTS: At 3 week survival,the SVZ of HIBD group was smaller and markedly less cellular than control group.BrdU-positive cells were dramatically decreased in the SVZ and DG of the affected hemisphere(P
