- W2896756479 abstract "Abstract Vascular dysfunction associated with low nitric oxide (NO) biavailability and low plasma L-arginine levels is observed in both human and experimental cerebral malaria (ECM). In ECM, cerebrovascular constriction results in decreased pial blood flow and hypoxia, and administration of NO donors reverses constriction and increases survival. Supplementation of L-arginine, the substrate for NO synthesis by NO synthases, has been considered as a strategy to improve vascular health and act as adjunctive therapy in human severe malaria. We investigated the effect of L-arginine supplementation on pial vascular tonus of mice with ECM after direct superfusion on the brain surface or systemic delivery. Pial arteriolar diameters of Plasmodium berghei -infected mice with implanted cranial windows were measured using intravital microscopy methods, before and after L-arginine administration. Systemic delivery of L-arginine was performed intravenously, at 10, 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg, as bolus injection or slowly through osmotic pumps, combined or not with artesunate. Direct superfusion of L-arginine (10 −7 M, 10 −5 M and 10 −3 M) on the brain surface of mice with ECM resulted in immediate, consistent and dose-dependent dilation of pial arterioles. ECM mice showed marked cerebrovascular constriction that progressively worsened over a 24 h-period after subcutaneous saline bolus administration. L-arginine administration prevented the worsening in pial constriction at all the doses tested, and at 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg it induced temporary reversal of vasoconstriction. Slow, continuous delivery of L-arginine by osmotic pumps, or combined bolus administration of artesunate with L-arginine, also prevented worsening of pial constriction and resulted in improved survival of mice with ECM. L-arginine ameliorates pial vasoconstriction in mice with ECM." @default.
