Abstract

Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy is a serious condition due to inadequate oxygen supply to the brain. Regeneration of neural cells is a critical process for repairing the damaged brain. Nogo has been identified as an inhibitor of neurite outgrowth that is specific to the brain. In the present study, the Nogo-A receptor (NgR) antagonist NEP1-40 was used to study the effects of inhibition of NgR on the regeneration of neural cells and the related Wnt signaling pathway in newborn rats. The investigation focused on the transcription factors regulated in the Wnt signaling pathway during the repair process, together with the proliferation of neural cells. The results indicated that c-Jun and c-Myc were the main transcription factors involved in the Wnt signaling pathway, while neural cell proliferation in the subventricular zone was increased during this process.
