The effects, and thereby possible benefit, of inhibiting nitric oxide synthases (NOS) after brain injury are not fully understood. Nitric oxide (NO) has both neuroprotective and damaging features, and its effect on the cellular proliferation and differentiation that occurs in response to traumatic brain injury (TBI) is largely unknown. This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of the selective inducible NOS-inhibitor, L-N-iminoethyl-lysine (L-NIL), on proliferating cell populations in rat brain areas with self-renewing capacity.
