Resumo
A study was conducted of the dynamics of changes in the population of GABAergic neurons and the protein content of the α1 subunit, which is included in of the GABAA receptor (GABAAα1) in the CA1 and CA3 fields of the hippocampus during the neonatal period under normal conditions and after exposure to perinatal hypoxia. The study used a model of human premature pregnancy. Exposure to hypoxia was carried out on the 2nd day after birth, in a special chamber with oxygen content in the respiratory mixture of 7.8%. Immunohistochemical research methods were used to detect GABA and the α1 GABAA receptor subunit protein. The hippocampus was studied on days 5 and 10. It was shown that in control animals during the neonatal period, in fields CA1 and CA3, there is a gradual increase in the population of GABAergic neurons, an increase in the content of GABA itself and the protein of the α1 GABAA receptor subunit. Asphyxia during the perinatal period leads to a reduction in the number of GABAergic neurons in both fields CA1 and CA3, a decrease in the content of GABA itself, the protein of the α1 subunit of the GABAA receptor and a delay in the development of the neuropil. Thus, in animals that have experienced asphyxia, by the end of the neonatal period, changes in the organization of the GABAergic system are already expressed in parts of the hippocampus, which can lead to dysfunction of the inhibitory system already at the earliest stages of development.
