“…In this model, global hypoxia induces seizures in rat pups at postnatal day 10 (P10) to P12 but not in younger or older rat pups (Jensen et al, 1991(Jensen et al, , 1992. Furthermore, after hypoxia-induced neonatal seizures, rats exhibit long-term increases in seizure susceptibility (Jensen et al, 1991(Jensen et al, , 1992 as well as early and long-lasting increases in hippocampal and cortical network excitability (Jensen et al, 1998). In immature rats, hypoxia-induced seizures and chronic hyperexcitability can be blocked by treatment with antagonists to AMPA receptors (AMPARs) but not NMDA receptors (NMDARs) (Jensen et al, 1995;Koh and Jensen, 2001;Koh et al, 2004).…”
