Endothelin-1, a peptide exhibiting extremely potent cerebral vasoactive properties, is
elevated in the cerebrospinal fluid after hemorrhagic stroke and implicated in cerebral …

The present study examines the possibility that lesions induced by intrastriatal injections of
endothelin-1 (ET-1, 0.43 nmol/0.5 µl) are ischemic in nature due to a vasoconstriction of the …

The effects of endothelin (ET)‐3 and an ETB receptor agonist on astrocytic activation in rat
caudate putamen were examined by an immunohistochemical staining of glial fibrillary …

At 48 h following intrastriatal injection of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA; 100 nmol/μl) or
endothelin-1 (ET-1; 143 pmol/μl), significant increases in brain penetration of the highly …

Status epilepticus induced by pilocarpine in rats induces massive tissue damage comprising
neurons and astrocytes (incomplete infarction) in substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNR) and …

Evidence is provided that carbonic anhydrase-II is localized in the central nervous system to
wide spread systems of oligodendrocytes and restricted astroglia populations, involving both …

We have studied the ability of the vigilance-promoting drug modafinil to counteract the
ischemic lesion produced by a unilateral microinjection of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in the …

We studied the ability of the vigilance-promoting drug modafinil to modulate the anterograde
and retrograde changes in tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunoreactivity and in dopamine …

In a model of focal cerebral ischemia in mice, intracisternal injection of 5 and 10 pmol/mouse
endothelin-1 significantly increased the infarcted surface area by 15.5% and by 23.5 …
