The purpose of this study was to quantitatively determine the influence of the time-dependent effects of hypoxic-ischemic-encephalopathy (HIE) on cerebral metabolite changes in a neonatal rat model of severe HIE. Our results exhibited that a total of 16 metabolite signals in HIE rats were significantly altered with increased periods of development (at PD7, PD14, and PD28), compared to the CNTL. The present study is unique in that we discovered not only the usefulness of traditional markers (NAA, Cr, and choline-containing-compounds) but also several new results (Ala, Asp, Glu, Gln, and GSH, etc.) from a neonatal rat model of severe HIE.
