The neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) was intracerebroventricularly injected (50 micrograms per mouse) in mice submitted to various oxygenation conditions and the striatal levels of dopamine (DA) and its metabolites were determined by HPLC 7 days later. In normoxic conditions the striatal depletion in DA reached 50%. This effect was not modified by a normobaric hypoxia (10% O2) applied 30 min before and 30 min after the 6-OHDA injection. On the contrary, the neurotoxic effect was reduced when the hypoxia was prolonged up to 11 h after the drug administration. When a normobaric hyperoxia (60% O2) was applied 30 min before and 11 h after the 6-OHDA injection, the neurotoxic effects of the latter were not modified. These data, as well as other results obtained from ex vivo experiments showing that normobaric hypoxia or hyperoxia did not modify the striatal synaptosomal [3H]DA uptake, indicate that oxygen availability does not exert a critical influence on the efficiency of the neuronal dopamine uptake complex.

Pharmacological test demonstrated that radioprotective activity of indralin occurs by interaction with alpha-adrenoreceptor. Radioprotective effect of indralin decreased by alpha-adrenoblocker, aminazine and theophylline. Normobaric hyperoxia during irradiation reduced radioprotective effect of indralin in doses about ED50. In experiment with mice and rats it was shown that indralin induced acute hypoxia, impaired oxygen consumption and heat production by 30-46%, spleen bloodflow to 26.3% of control level, rectal temperature by 1.5-2 degrees C (mouse). After 30-min indralin raised resistance of mice to hypoxic hypoxia that is believed due to rapid development of biochemical adaptive process in hypoxic cells.

Exposure to hyperoxia, invasive mechanical ventilation, and systemic/local sepsis are important antecedents of postnatal inflammation in the pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). This review will summarize information obtained from animal (baboon, lamb/sheep, rat and mouse) models that pertain to the specific inflammatory agents and signaling molecules that predispose a premature infant to BPD.
