摘 要:Traumatic brain injury(TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability in individuals *** a clinically relevant TBI model in small-sized animals remains fairly *** good screening of potential therapeutics,which are effective in the treatment of TBI,animal models of TBI should be established and *** this study,we established mouse models of closed head injury using the Shohami weight-drop method with some modifications concerning cognitive deficiency assessment and provided a detailed description of the severe TBI animal *** found that 250 g falling weight from 2 cm height produced severe closed head injury in C57BL/6 male *** disorders in mice with severe closed head injury could be detected using passive avoidance test on day 7 after *** from this study indicate that weight-drop injury animal models are suitable for further screening of brain neuroprotectants and potentially are similar to those seen in human TBI.
