Abstract:
Objective To explore the influence of recombinant human erythropoietin(rhEPO) injection about nitric oxide(NO) and nitric oxide synthase(NOS) level in the brain and endothelin(ET) level in the blood after hypoxia-ischemia brain damage(HIBD) in neonatal rats,and elucidate the possible mechanism of the neuroprotective effect of rhEPO administered to the rat pup prior to cerebral hypoxia-ischemia.Methods Seven days-old SD rats were divided into control group,hypoxia-ischemia group(HI) and EPO group.NO activity,NOS level in the brain and ET in the blood were determined at 6 h after hypoxia-ischemia.Results NO and NOS levels in the brain and ET level in the blood were increased after HIBD in neonatal rats(P
