Peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) inhibition reduces neuronal damage in neonatal hypoxic ischaemic (HI) with 60-min (strong) hypoxia. Following HI with strong (60 min) hypoxia, severe tissue loss (a), strong microglial activation with phagocytic morphology (b) and TUNEL-positive cells (c) were observed in the hippocampus after 48 h. Upon treatment with one dose of Cl-amidine (CA; 60 mg/kg) immediately following hypoxia, reduced damage was seen in the hippocampus (d) and a significant difference was observed both in the level of microglial activation (e) and TUNEL-positive cells (f). Scale bars: a & d = 500 μM; b, c, e, f = 200 μM. For reference, the regions of the hippocampus (dentate gyrus (dg) and CA 1, 2, 3) are indicated in f.
