Sex-dependent effects of neonatal hyperoxia on prefrontal cortex development

Premature infants often require supplemental oxygen therapy, a major risk factor for bronchopulmonary dysplasia and subsequent neurodevelopmental impairment. To determine how neonatal hyperoxia affects prefrontal cortex (PFC) development, we exposed neonatal mice to 85% oxygen (O...
