To gain insights into the pathogenesis and management of perinatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage, the authors have used an immature rat model which they developed many years ago. The model entails ligation of one common carotid artery followed thereafter by systemic hypoxia. The insult produces perm
The four most prominent hypotheses on the cellular processes leading to hypoxic-ischemic neuronal damage or death are (1) the lactacidosis hypothesis, (2) the calcium overload hypothesis, (3) the excitotoxic hypothesis, and (4) the oxygen-free radical hypothesis. The authors comment on the evidence
## Abstract Developing oligodendrocytes (pre‐OLs) are highly vulnerable to hypoxic‐ischemic injury and associated excitotoxicity and oxidative stress. 17β‐Estradiol plays an important role in the development and function of the CNS and is neuroprotective. The sudden drop in circulating estrogen aft
