Abstract
1. Nitric oxide radicals (NO) play an important role in the pathophysiology of focal cerebral ischemia. 2. Vascular NO can reduce ischemic brain injury by increasing CBF, whereas neuronal NO may mediate neurotoxicity following brain ischemia, mainly by its reaction with superoxide to generate peroxynitrite. 3. These findings could contribute to a strategy for the treatment of cerebral ischemia.Entities:
