Although hitherto considered as a strictly locally acting vasodilator, results from recent
clinical studies with inhaled nitric oxide (NO) indicate that NO can exert effects beyond the …

Background and Purpose—Instability of the vascular tone (vasomotion) develops in several
cerebrovascular diseases associated with endothelial dysfunction. The aim of the present …

Background Low frequency (4–12 cpm) spontaneous fluctuations of the cerebrovascular
tone (vasomotion) and oscillations of the cerebral blood flow (CBF) have been reported in …

The involvement of nitric oxide (NO) in cerebral blood flow (CBF) stimulation by
acetazolamide was studied in anaesthetised, mechanically ventilated Wistar rats. CBF was …

Urotensin-II (UT-II) is a small circular peptide and is described as the most potent
endogenous vasoconstrictor in various vascular beds. However, the in vivo effects of UT-II …

The role of nitric oxide (NO) in the activation-flow coupling (AFC) response to periodic
electrical forepaw stimulation was investigated using signal averaged laser Doppler (LD) …

The cerebrovascular effects of the heme oxygenase–carbon monoxide pathway were
studied in the rat hypothalamus. Intraperitoneal administration of the heme oxygenase …

Abstract Heme-oxygenase (HO)-derived carbon monoxide (CO) is generated in the
cardiovascular and in the central nervous systems. Endogenous CO exerts direct vascular …

Oscillation of the cerebral blood flow (CBF) is a common feature in several physiological or
pathophysiological states of the brain. It is a promising opportunity to identify the state of the …

抄録< jats: p> Oscillation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in physiological or pathophysiological
brain states is common, therefore it is promising to identify cerebral circulation disorders …
