Early Intravenous Infusion of Sodium Nitrite Protects Brain Against In Vivo Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury

Abstract

Nitrite exerted profound neuroprotective effects with antioxidant properties in the ischemic brains. These results suggest that nitrite, as a biological storage reserve of NO, may be a novel therapeutic agent in the setting of acute stroke.
