Oxidative stress and apoptosis after acute respiratory hypoxia and reoxygenation in rat brain

Acute hypoxia increases the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the brain. However, the effect of reoxygenation, unavoidable to achieve full recovery of the hypoxic organ, has not been clearly established. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of exposition to acute seve...
