Changes in neostriatal and hippocampal synaptic densities in perinatal asphyctic male and female young rats: Role of hypothermia
Perinatal asphyxia (PA) may cause long-term neurological and psychiatric diseases. We evaluated, by ethanolic phosphotungstic acid (E-PTA) staining, whether PA affects postsynaptic densities (PSDs), ultrastructure of neostriatum and hippocampus of 45-day-old post-PA male and female rats. PA was indu...

Striatal synaptic disorganization and PSDs thickness increase were evident after 10 and 19. min of PA in male and female rats, respectively, but striatal female PSDs thickness was lower than in males.
