In conclusion, our immature rat model has gained wide acceptance as the animal model of choice to study basic physiologic, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms of perinatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage. In addition, the model has been used extensively to study those physiologic and therapeutic variables which either are deleterious or beneficial to the perinatal brain undergoing hypoxia-ischemia. As therapeutic interventions are tested in the animal setting, the results will provide important information regarding the effect of these agents in the human setting.
