摘要: Abstract Environmental enrichment (EE) results in improved learning and spatial memory, as well attenuates morphological changes resulting from cerebral ischemia adult animals. This study examined the effects of daily EE on memory deficits water maze damage, assessed hippocampus cortex, caused by neonatal hypoxia-ischemia. Male Wistar rats 7th postnatal day were submitted to Levine-Rice model hypoxia-ischemia (HI), comprising permanent occlusion right common carotid artery a period hypoxia (90 min, 8%O 2 –92%N ). Starting two weeks after HI event, animals stimulated enriched environment (1 h/day for 9 weeks); subsequent stimulation, performance was assessed. resulted reference working impairments that completely reversed EE. Following behavioral study, killed hippocampal volume cortical area estimated. There significant reduction both area, ipsilateral arterial occlusion, animals; environmental stimulation had no effect these measurements. Presented data indicate recovers without affecting tissue atrophy either or cortex.
