Effects of experimental obstructive jaundice on contractile responses of dog isolated blood vessels: Role of endothelium and duration of bile duct ligation
(BLACKWELL SCIENCE ASIA, 2000)
1. We examined the effects of experimental obstructive jaundice caused by bile duct ligation (BDL) on vascular smooth muscle function, as well as the underlying mechanisms involved, by recording responses to noradrenaline ...
Rho-kinase inhibitors Y-27632 and fasudil prevent agonist-induced vasospasm in human radial artery
(CANADIAN SCIENCE PUBLISHING, NRC RESEARCH PRESS, 2009)
Radial artery (RA) vasospasm remains a potential cause of early graft failure after coronary artery bypass graft surgery, despite pretreatment with alpha-adrenergic or calcium channel blockers. Our aim was to investigate ...
Intracisternal versus intracarotid infusion of L-arginine in experimental cerebral vasospasm
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2007)
Aim: The effect of short term intracisternal and intracarotid L-arginine infusion on experimental cerebral acute phase vasospasm in a rabbit subarachnoid haemorrhage model is investigated, and the two groups compared. ...
Intracarotid L-arginine reverses motor evoked potential changes in experimental cerebral vasospasm
(TURKISH NEUROSURGICAL SOC, 2007)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate motor evoked potentials during short term L-arginine infusion in cerebral vasospasm after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage. METHODS: Three groups were designated for this study: control group, ...
Inhibition of neuronal nitric oxide synthase prevents iron-induced cerebellar Purkinje cell loss in the rat
(NENCKI INST EXPERIMENTAL BIOLOGY, 2008)
Iron plays an important role in maintaining normal. brain function. However, in many neurodegenerative diseases abnormal iron accumulation in specific brain regions has been consistently reported. In this study, we ...
The therapeutic effect of continuous intracisternal L-arginine infusion on experimental cerebral vasospasm
(SPRINGER-VERLAG WIEN, 2001)
Background. Recent studies on the pathogenesis of cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) suggest a breakdown of the balance between the vasoconstrictor and vasodilator systems. A shortage of a major ...
