Hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury is a common neurological problem in neonates. The postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95) is an excitatory synaptic scaffolding protein that regulates synaptic function, and represents a potential therapeutic target to attenuate HI brain injury. Syn3 and d-Syn3 are novel high affinity cyclic peptides that bind the PDZ3 domain of PSD-95.
