Abstract
A quantitative study of the indusium griseum was conducted in control mice and in mice subjected to hypoxia at 390 mm Hg for 2 days. One group of mice subjected to hypoxia was killed immediately after hypoxia; another group was allowed to recovery for 1 wk. There was no significant variation in the number of neurons in any of the groups. Neuroglia decreased from a mean number of 1741 .+-. 120 in the control animals to 1251 .+-. 67 in the hypoxic group and 1223 .+-. 51 in the recovery group. Apparently this fall occurs mainly in astrocytes because these cells appear to be especially susceptible to the effects of hypoxia.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
