Despite treatment with therapeutic hypothermia (TH), infants who survive hypoxic ischemic (HI) encephalopathy (HIE) have persistent neurologic abnormalities at school age. Protection by TH against HI brain injury is variable in both humans and animal models. Our current pre-clinical model of HI and TH displays this variability of outcomes in neuropathological and neuroimaging endpoints with some sexual-dimorphism. The detailed behavioral phenotype of this model is unknown as well as whether there is sexual-dimorphism in certain behavioral domains. Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) supports neuronal cell survival and repair but may also be a marker of injury. Here, we characterize behavioral deficits after HI and TH stratified by sex, as well as late changes in BDNF and its correlation with memory impairment. HI was induced in C57BL6 mice at p10 (modified Vannucci model). Mice were randomized to TH (31 °C) or normothermia (NT, 36 °C) for 4 h after HI. Controls were sham anesthesia-exposed age and sex-matched littermates. Between p16 and p39, growth was followed and behavioral testing was performed including: reflexes (air righting, forelimb grasp and negative geotaxis), sensorimotor, learning and memory skills (open field, balance beam, adhesive removal, Y-maze tests and object location task [OLT]). Correlations between mature BDNF levels in forebrain at p42 memory outcomes were studied. Both male and female HI mice had a ~8 to 12% lower growth rate (gr/day) than shams (p≤0.01) by p39. TH ameliorated this growth failure in female but not in male mice. In female mice HI injury prolonged the time spent in the periphery (open field) at p36 (p=0.004), regardless of treatment. TH prevented motor impairments on the balance beam and in adhesive removal tests in male and female mice, respectively (p≤0.05). Male and female HI mice visited the new arm of the Y-maze 12.5% (p≤0.05) and 10% (p=0.03) less often than shams, respectively. Male HI mice also had 35% lower exploratory preference score than sham (p≤0.001) in OLT. TH did not prevent memory impairments found with Y maze testing or OLT in either sex (p=0.01) at p26. At p42, BDNF levels in the forebrain ipsilateral to the HI insult were 1.7 to 2 fold higher than BDNF levels in sham forebrain and TH did not prevent this increase. Higher BDNF levels in the forebrain ipsilateral to the insult correlated with worse performance in the Y-maze in both sexes and in OLT in male mice (p=0.01). TH provides benefit in specific domains of behavior following neonatal HI. In general, these benefits accrued to both males and females but not in all areas. In some domains, such as memory, no benefit of TH was found. Late differences in individual BDNF levels may explain some of these findings.
