    Notes: Summary We examined the effects of the recently developed calcium antagonist HA1077 on cerebral haemodynamics during the chronic stage of the two-haemorrhage canine model system of vasospasm. Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF), regional cerebral blood velocity and regional cerebral blood volume in the canine parietal cortex were measured by Laser-doppler flowmeter. On the 7th day after the initial injection of autogenous blood, subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) produced a significant decrease in rCBF (59% of control, p〈0.05) and Hood velocity (48% of control, p〈0.05), with no remarkable change in blood volume (108% of control). Bolus intravenous administration of HA1077 (0.1–0.3 mg/kg) dose-dependently increased the rCBF and blood velocity, without significantly changing the blood volume on Day 7 after SAH. HA1077 improves haemodynamic function manifested by an increase in rCBF and velocity in this SAH model, and may be suitable for the treatment of vasospasm in patients with SAH.

    Notes: Summary Acute effects of occlusion of the middle cerebral artery on local cerebral blood flow (LCBF) and local cerebral glucose utilization (LCGU) were investigated quantitatively in separate groups of rats using (14C) iodoantipyrine (14C-IAP) or (14C) 2-deoxyglucose (14C-DG) respectively. LCBF was significantly decreased in the ipsilateral cerebral cortices (to less than 45 ml/100 g/min or 30% of the control side) and the lateral part of the striatum (to 22 ml/100 g/min or 10% of the control side) which were supplied by the middle cerebral artery. No significant changes in LCBF were found in any other of the subcortical regions. In contrast to the unanimous decrease of LCBF in the ipsilateral cortices and the lateral striatum, complexed changes in LCGU were found in not only the cortex and striatum but also in many other subcortical regions which were closely related to the distribution of the mesencephalic dopamine neurons, such as globus pallidus, substantia nigra, subthalamic nucleus, nucleus accumbens, olfactory tubercle and lateral habenular nucleus. Relevance of this putative neurotransmitter and GABA on the glucose metabolism in ischemic brain is discussed.
