Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to clarify the molecular mechanism of causal factor of vasospasm, SPC. Surprisingly, SPC was not produced by the enzymatic reaction, but by the non-enzymatic reaction. We discovered that OH radical plays an essential role of the non-enzymatic production of SPC.
