Abstract

Background and PurposeOxotremorine (OXO) is a cholinergic agonist that increases cerebral blood flow (CBF) when administered intravenously. We tested the hypothesis that OXO causes a dose-related increase in CBF in cats via a muscarinic mechanism that involves stimulation of nitric oxide synthase.
