Neuronal apoptosis is a key pathological process in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)-induced early brain injury. Given that recombinant osteopontin (rOPN), a promising neuroprotectant, cannot pass through the blood-brain barrier, we aimed to examine whether nasal administration of rOPN prevents neuronal apoptosis after experimental SAH.
