Caspase-3 deficiency during development increases vulnerability to hypoxic–ischemic injury through caspase-3-independent pathways
Neonatal hypoxia–ischemia (H–I) is a common cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality leading to prominent activation of caspase-3 in the brain. Previous studies have shown that acute inhibition of caspase-3 can protect against neonatal H–I in rats. In this study, we investigated brain injury follo...
