Abstract
Abstract Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic insult (HII) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in newborns. It has long-term consequences and represents a socioeconomic burden. It is an urgent issue in current neonatology. The aim of the present pilot study was to evaluate the possible effect of sulforaphane on brain glucose uptake expressed as 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) activity at the acute, subacute, and subchronic time intervals after the experimental perinatal HII in rats. Significant protection has been observed in the hippocampus 5 weeks after the insult as represented by normalisations of interhemispheric ratio of measured 18F-FDG activity. In conclusion, positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-FDG revealed a protective effect of SFN on glucose metabolism in the subchronic phase after HII. Further research within the field of neonatal HII in newborn rats will be necessary.
期刊介绍：
European Pharmaceutical Journal publishes only original articles not previously published and articles that are not being considered or have not been submitted for publication elsewhere. If parts of the results have been published as conference abstract or elsewhere, it should be stated in references. The ethical standards of the Helsinki-Tokio Declaration should be kept. This should be mentioned in the Methods of manuscript. Reviews are published only on request. Authors, whose submitted research work was performed with the support of a company, should indicate this in Conflict of Interest.
