Abstract:
To study the mechanism of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on spinal cord injury (SCI), we duplicated a SCI model and determined the concentrations of excitatory amino acids [EAA, including aspartic acid (Asp) and glutamic acid (Glu)] in spinal cord tissue after treated with 0 1 MPa HBO, 0 25 MPa HBO, 0 25 MPa N 2 O 2 and hormone, respectively. The results showed that the concentration of EAA (Glu) in the spinal cord significantly increased after injury, whereas after treatment it decreased in all but the N 2 O 2 group. It decreased most significantly in 0 25MPa HBO and 0 25MPa HBO+hormone groups. There were significant differences between 0 25MPa HBO group and 0 1MPa HBO group, 0 25MPa HBO+hormone group and pure hormone group ( P
