Both hypoxia and hyperoxia, deregulating the oxidative balance, may play a role in the pathology of neurodegenerative disorders underlain by cerebral ischemia. In the present study, quantitative proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to evaluate regional metabolic alterations, following a 24-hour hypoxic or hyperoxic exposure on the background of ischemic brain insult, in two | Macri et al.

In the present study quantitative proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to evaluate regional metabolic alterations following a 24-hour hypoxic or hyperoxic exposure on the background of ischemic brain insult in two contrasting age-groups of rats young - 3 months old and aged - 24 months old. Methods Cerebral ischemia was induced by ligation of the right common carotid artery. Concentrations of eight metabolites alanine choline-containing compounds total creatine Y-aminobutyric acid glutamate lactate myoinositol and N-acetylaspartate were quantified from extracts in three different brain regions fronto-parietal and occipital cortices and the hippocampus from both hemispheres. Results In the control normoxic condition there were significant increases in lactate and myo-inositol concentrations in the hippocampus of the aged rats compared with the respective values in the young ones. In the ischemia-hypoxia condition the most prevalent changes in the brain metabolites were found in the hippocampal regions of both young and aged rats but the effects were more evident in the aged animals. The ischemia-hyperoxia procedure caused less dedicated changes in the brain metabolites which may reflect more limited
