Experiments have shown that GABA conjugate with prostaglandin E2 enhances cerebral blood flow in rats after global transient ischemia, while not affecting the cerebral hemoperfusion in intact animals. It is established that cerebrovascular activity of the GABA conjugate with prostaglandin E2 under conditions of cerebral ischemia is based on GABAergic mechanisms of vascular tone regulation, since it is removed by GABA(A)-receptor blocker bicuculline. At the same time, cerebral blood flow of intact rats and rats after global transient ischemia of brain is equally enhanced by prostaglandin E2 alone. This effect is not neutralized by bicuculline.

D008297 Male Males
D010120 Oxytocics Drugs that stimulate contraction of the myometrium. They are used to induce LABOR, OBSTETRIC at term, to prevent or control postpartum or postabortion hemorrhage, and to assess fetal status in high risk pregnancies. They may also be used alone or with other drugs to induce abortions (ABORTIFACIENTS). Oxytocics used clinically include the neurohypophyseal hormone OXYTOCIN and certain prostaglandins and ergot alkaloids.

D002545 Brain Ischemia Localized reduction of blood flow to brain tissue due to arterial obstruction or systemic hypoperfusion. This frequently occurs in conjunction with brain hypoxia (HYPOXIA, BRAIN). Prolonged ischemia is associated with BRAIN INFARCTION.
