Hypoxia Alters The Expression of Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins after Brain Trauma in The Mouse

Abstract

Hypoxia worsens brain injury following trauma, but the mechanisms remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and secondary hypoxia (9% oxygen) on apoptosis-related protein expression, cell death, and behavior. Using a murine weight-drop model, TBI led to an early (6 h) increase followed by a later (24 h) decrease in neuronal apoptosis inhibitor protein (NAIP) expression in the olfactory …
