Cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage may result partially from the imbalance between vasodilator and vasoconstrictor factors. The vasodilator peptides substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide contained in the trigeminovascular system are involved in the vasomotor phenomenon occurring after subarachnoid hemorrhage. The delayed arterial narrowing may reflect the time course of the release of these peptides. Therefore, we followed the time course of the changes in cerebrospinal fluid immunoreactivity of substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide in a model of experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage.
