Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor enhances nigral gamma-aminobutyric acid release.

abstract：:ONO-1714, a selective inhibitor of inducible nitric oxide synthetase (iNOS) attenuated the increase of apoptosis and improved the functional outcome of urinary bladder after traumatic spinal cord injury. These findings suggest that iNOS plays a role in the process of SCI. Early treatment with 30 mg/kg methylprednisolo...
