Abstract
Background:
Nitric oxide (NO) depletion and periadventitial inflammation contribute to the pathogenesis of cerebral vasospasm. L-Citrulline increases L-arginine levels, thereby raising NO synthesis. Transgenic C57BI6 mice with a haptoglobin (Hp) 2-2 genotype develop more severe vasospasm than wild-type (Hp 1–1) mice after subarachnoi...
