The present invention relates to nitric oxide releasing compounds and their use in the prevention, amelioration and/or therapy of nitric oxide (NO) deficiency induced disturbances of the cerebral microcirculation. The NO deficiency induced disturbances of the cerebral microcirculation may be due to an intracranial hemorrhage or stroke and can cause cerebrovascular spasms (or cerebral vasospasms) (CVS) and/or malperfusion of brain parenchyma caused by blood vessel and blood flow dysregulation which, in turn, can cause secondary neurological deficiencies (DIND) and/or brain infarction. Particularly, the present invention relates to the prevention, amelioration and/or therapy of delayed cerebral vasospasm-associated disorders after survived subarachnoidal hemorrhage by applying a NO-donor, most preferably Molsidomine.
本发明涉及
一氧化氮释放化合物及其在预防、改善和/或治疗
一氧化氮(NO)缺乏引起的脑微循环障碍中的用途。
一氧化氮缺乏引起的脑微循环障碍可能是由颅内出血或中风引起的,可导致脑血管痉挛(或脑血管痉挛)(CVS)和/或由血管和血流失调引起的脑实质灌注不良,进而导致继发性神经功能缺损(DIND)和/或脑梗塞。特别是,本发明涉及通过应用一种 NO 供体,最优选的是莫西多明,来预防、改善和/或治疗存活的蛛网膜下腔出血后迟发性脑血管痉挛相关疾病。
