The effects of nonselective (theophylline), A(1)-(DPCPX) or A(2A)-selective (SCH 58261) adenosine receptor antagonists administered before or after neonatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI) were studied on the extent of brain injury in 7-day-old rats evaluated after 14 days. A possible effect of theophylline (20 mg/kg) on expression of immediate early genes was studied with in situ hybridization. Theophylline (20, 30 or 60 mg/kg) given prior to HI reduced brain damage by 48% (P < 0.001), 36% (P < 0.01) and 34% (P < 0.05), respectively, compared to control rats. This effect was not explained by changes in temperature, cerebral blood flow, blood gas/acid base status or blood glucose during the insult. Theophylline enhanced the upregulation of c-fos and NFGI-A. during reperfusion but did not prevent the decrease in adenosine A(1) receptor mRNA. Posttreatment with SCH 58261 (0.2 or 2 mg/kg) reduced brain damage by 19% (P < 0.05) and 14% (NS), respectively, compared to control rats. which was unrelated to the core temperature. DPCPX (2 or 10 mg/kg) had no effect on the development of brain injury. In conclusion, nonselective and A(2A) adenosine receptor antagonists reduced brain injury in a model of HI in immature animals.
