Abstract:
To explore the role of cerebro-spinal flu id(CSF)glutamate and nitric oxide (NO) in the pathogenesis of neonatal hypoxic- ischemia encephalopathy (HIE), glutamate and NO in CSF were determined in 24 new born infants with HIE and 8 normal control infants, respectively. The results sh owed that the levels of glutamate and NO in CSF were significantly higher in the neonates with moderate and severe HIE than those in both of the control group an d neonates with mild HIE.There was an obviously positive relationship between le v els of glutamate and NO. It is concluded that glutamate and NO play an important role in the pathogenesis of neonatal HIE.
