“…Q3 There are a number of hypoxia-induced seizure models that reproduce important clinical features of HIE in the neonatal http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jneumeth.2015.09.023 0165-0270/© 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V. Holtzman et al (1999) and Kekelidze et al (2000) population by brief exposure of immature rats to graded global hypoxia (Jensen et al, 1991;Moshe and Albala, 1985) (Table 1). Such hypoxia-induced seizures usually occur in a specific age window and lead to both acute and long-term network hyperexcitability, spontaneous seizures and later in life cognitive deficits without acute neuronal death (Chen et al, 2006;Jensen et al, 1991Jensen et al, , 1998Jensen and Wang, 1996;Laroia et al, 1997;Moshe and Albala, 1985;Rakhade et al, 2011Rakhade et al, , 2008Rubaj et al, 2003;Sanchez et al, 2000Sanchez et al, , 2005Sanchez and Jensen, 2001;Sato et al, 1994;Sun et al, 2013;Wais et al, 2009;Yager and Ashwal, 2009;Yang et al, 2004;Zanelli et al, 2014). In this section, we will provide an overview of the animal species used in hypoxia-induced seizure study.…”
