  • Title: N omega-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester inhibits electrocortical recovery subsequent to transient global brain ischemia in Mongolian gerbil.

    Journal: Funct Neurol; 1992; 7(2):123-7. PubMed ID: 1607127.
    Abstract:
    Electrocorticographic (ECoG) activity remains isoelectric for about 15 min after transient (10 min) bilateral carotid arteries occlusion in mongolian gerbils. In this model of global forebrain ischemia N omega-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, significantly delays the recovery of ECoG amplitude. Thus, the present experiments suggest that NO is involved in the cerebrovascular physiological response to brain ischemia.
