Abstract
In vasogenic cerebral oedema, there is progressive quantitative and qualitative impairment of mitochondrial ATPase and of Na/K/ATPase. This impairment, which reflects the intracellular component of cerebral oedema, would appear to be related to changes in the phospholipid environment of the cell membrane enzymes. CDP choline, a metabolic phospholipid precursor, is to a certain extent capable of correcting this disturbed activity and at the same time reduce oedema.Entities:
