Cerebrospinal fluid from patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage and vasospasm enhances endothelin contraction in rat cerebral arteries.

Cerebrospinal fluid from patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage and vasospasm enhances endothelin contraction in rat cerebral arteries.

INTRODUCTION:Previous studies have suggested that cerebrospinal fluid from patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) leads to pronounced vasoconstriction in isolated arteries. We hypothesized that only cerebrospinal fluid from SAH patients with vasospasm would produce an enhanced contractile respo...
