Abstract: Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical that can act both as a signalling molecule and a neurotoxin. Previous literature suggest that it is involved in multiple brain pathologies. The main aim of this study was to investigate the role of NO in conduction block and structural axonal injury during and following glucose deprivation (GD).
