Abstract

Preconditioning using threefold mild hypobaric hypoxia (HH)
is known to increase the tolerance of vulnerable brain neurons to severe hypoxia and other damaging factors. In the present study, the changes of the expression of transcription factors NF-κB
(nuclear factor kappa B) and CREB (cAMP response element
binding protein) were studied in the hippocampus of rats preconditioned
by mild hypoxia. Using immunocytochemical method, it was demonstrated that HH increased NF-κB and phosphorylated
CREB (pCREB) immunoreactivity in CA1-CA4 fields of the hippocampus and gyrus dentatus. It also contributed to the up-regulation of the expression of these transcription factors in the hippocampus of preconditioned rats 3-24 h following severe
HH. These findings suggest that NF-κB and CREB are involved
in HH-activated mechanisms of brain tolerance development.
