Effect of Cyclooxygenase Inhibitor on Hypoxia Stimulated Cerebral Blood Flow Using Arterial Spin Labeling Magnetic Resonance

The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to determine microvascular cerebral blood flow (CBF) during hypoxia and 2) to investigate the effect of Ketorolac, a cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor, on hypoxia stimulated CBF. Acute exposure to hypoxic conditions leads to an increase in CBF, which may be regionally specific. Studies investigating the effect of hypoxia on CBF have utilized varying gradations and durations of hypoxia and different measuring techniques (transcranial doppler ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)). COX has been shown to significantly contribute to CBF at rest, however during hypoxia research has shown conflicting data on COX contribution to hypoxic CBF. Utilizing arterial spin labeling (ASL), an MRI technique that provides microvascular global and regional perfusion, during hypoxia stimulated CBF and the role of COX. We hypothesized hypoxia will increase CBF non‐uniformly, and COX inhibition with Ketorolac will reduce hypoxic dilation in some, but not all brain regions.
