A Consequence of Immature Breathing induces Persistent Changes in Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity and Behavior: A Role of Pro-Oxidant State and NMDA Receptor Imbalance
Alejandra Arias‐Cavieres, Alfredo J. Garcia
This study shows that neonatal intermittent hypoxia causes a pro-oxidant state and NMDA receptor imbalance, leading to long-term synaptic plasticity and memory deficits, which can be mitigated by early antioxidant treatment.
