Abstract

To assess whether Neuroglobin could play a functional role during perinatal period and birth, it was analyzed in 83 umbilical cord blood samples where its concentration ranged between 1.65 and 45.18 ng/mL, mean 18.49 ng/mL. Although resembling concentrations previously detected in many pathologic conditions in adults, none of newborns displayed altered Apgar score and were regularly discharged in healthy status. Surprisingly, 83.13% of babies had NGB concentrations higher than the putative 8.4 ng/mL value, recently hypothesized as a prognostic cut-off between good and bad recovery from cerebral ischemia in adults.
