Mexicor treatment (8 mg/kg body weight per day) during the posttraumatic period after concomitant traumatic brain injury and acute blood loss in rats increased electrophoretic mobility and concentration of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate, and reduced malondialdehyde content in erythrocytes. These changes improved hemodynamics and oxygen-transporting function of the blood. The most pronounced effects of Mexicor were observed at the early stages of posttraumatic period.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
