Abstract Examination of the reactivity exhibited by the basilar artery of the brain in Krushinsky-Molodkina rats before and after an induced epileptiform seizure accompanied by subarachnoid hemorrhages showed increased contractility of this artery in response to endothelin-1 and its reduced sensitivity to ATP 24 h after the seizure. Such changes in the reactivity of brain vessels may contribute to the development of vasospasm and secondary ischemia of the brain after an epileptic seizure.
