How- ever, the detailed mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, we used a rodent model of neonatal hypoxia by subjecting postnatal day 0 (P0) rat pups to systemic hypoxia (3.5 h). We found that neonatal hypoxia increased the glutamate content and initiated inflammatory responses at 4 h and 1 day after hypoxia, caused hypomyelination in the corpus callosum, and impaired hippocampus-dependent learning and memory when assessed 30-60 days after hypoxia. Interestingly, much of the hypoxia-induced brain damage was ameliorated by treatment with the ATP ana- logue 21,3-0-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-adenosine 5^-triphos- phate (TNP-ATP; blocks all ionotropic P2Xl-7 receptors), whereas treatment with pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl- 2',4'-disulphonic acid (PPADS; inhibits P2X1-3 and P2X5- 7 receptors) was less neuroprotective. Our data indicated that activation of ionotropic ATP receptors might be par- tially, if not fully, involved in glutamate deregulation, neuroinflammation, hypomyelination, and cognitive dys- function after neonatal hypoxia.展开更多
