| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective effects of sodium nitrite or NO inhalation therapy against ischemic spinal cord injury. The results of in this study demonstrated that enhancement of collateral network by sodium nitrite, but not NO inhalation, could produce significant increase in spinal cord blood flow during spinal cord ischemia. However, this increase in spinal cord blood flow could not induce neuroprotection against spinal cord ischemia.
