Nitric oxide (NO), the most convincing gaseous signalling molecule in vertebrates, was increasingly recognized as one of the most versatile and unique molecules mediating such diverse physiological functions as the maintenance of vascular tone, thromboticthrombolytic homeostasis, cell growth, and inflammation. The aim of the current study is to indicate the role of NO in propagation of cortical spreading depression (CSD) ischemic model. In ECoG analysis after administration of L-NAME (NO antagonist, doses 50, 100 �¼g/kg) and L-arginine (NO agonist 50/100 �¼g/kg) initiation and propagation of CSD-like wave was investigated. CSD-like wave in ischemic Wistar ratâ��s cortical brains was presented after injection of KCl (15 �¼g/kg). Based on this result, NO agonistics may initiate the propagation and initiation of CSD waves in stroke.
