Biochem/physiol Actions

A potent inhibitor of all nitric oxide synthase isoforms. Shows substantial neuroprotective effects against hypoxic damage (such as stroke) and animal models of Parkinson′s disease. Crystallographic studies show that inhibition of eNOS is due to an induced cascade of conformation changes that ultimately dissociates the tetrahydrobiopterin cofactor from the enzyme.

Although nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to play an important role in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia, its contribution to the pathogenesis of experimentally induced thromboembolic stroke is unknown. In this study, we pharmacologically manipulated NO levels in the

Recent studies have shown that the novel antioxidant LY231617 protects against ischaemia-induced neuronal damage in rat models of global cerebral ischaemia. In the present studies we have examined the effects of LY231617 in the gerbil model of global cerebral ischaemia.
