BACKGROUND: In neonatal rats, early post-hypoxia-ischemia (HI) administration of the omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) improves sensorimotor function, but does not attenuate brain damage.
OBJECTIVE: To determine if DHA administration in addition to hypothermia, now standard care for neonatal asphyxial brain injury, attenuates post-HI damage and sensorimotor deficits.
METHODS: Seven-day-old (P7) rats underwent right carotid ligation followed by 90 min of 8% O2 exposure. Fifteen minutes later, pups received injections of DHA 2.5 mg/kg (complexed to 25% albumin) or equal volumes of albumin. After a 1-hour recovery, pups were cooled (3 h, 30°C). Sensorimotor and pathology outcomes were initially evaluated on P14. In subsequent experiments, sensorimotor function was evaluated on P14, P21, and P28; histopathology was assessed on P28.
RESULTS: At P14, left forepaw function scores (normal: 20/20) were near normal in DHA + hypothermia-treated animals (mean ± SD 19.7 ± 0.7 DHA + hypothermia vs. 12.7 ± 3.5 albumin + hypothermia, p < 0.0001) and brain damage was reduced (mean ± SD right hemisphere damage 38 ± 17% with DHA + hypothermia vs. 56 ± 15% with albumin + hypothermia, p = 0.003). Substantial improvements on three sensorimotor function measures and reduced brain damage were evident up to P28.
CONCLUSION: Unlike post-HI treatment with DHA alone, treatment with DHA + hypothermia produced both sustained functional improvement and reduced brain damage after neonatal HI.
