HI affects brain areas including the cortex, hippocampus, and basal ganglia. More recently the mammillary bodies (MBs), critical for memory, were also shown to be affected in patients, despite treatment with therapeutic hypothermia (TH). Here we characterized the kinetics and extent of MB damage in an established neonatal HI mouse model and evaluated the therapeutic potential of TH or a novel regenerative intervention: intranasal mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">\n                      HI was induced in 9\u2010day\u2010old mouse pups; structural and cellular MB damage was assessed at days 1 to 3 and day 28 post HI by immunohistochemistry. For TH, mice were placed at 32 \u00b0C for 3\u2009hours directly post HI, and MB damage was assessed at day 10.
