Effects of cytoflavin and neuronol on morphological changes in the brain and survival of rats with ischemic disturbances in cerebral blood flow.

摘要

Cytoflavin and neuronol produce vasoactive and neuroprotective effects in rats with cerebral ischemia. Vasoactive activity of neuronol was higher than that of cytoflavin. These differences were most pronounced at the level of microcirculation. Test preparations were equally potent in producing the neuroprotective effect. Cytoflavin and neuronol markedly decreased the mortality rate of animals. Over the first 6 h of ischemia the relative effectiveness of cytoflavin was higher than that of neuronol. However, neuronol exceeded cytoflavin in the relative effectiveness during the follow-up period (days 1-21).
