The vascular relaxation effects of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) on the dog basilar artery after experimentally produced subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) were examined in vitro by an isometric tension recording method. Both CGRP and VIP induced dose-dependent relaxations in ring segments of the intact basilar artery of control dogs. The vasorelaxant action of CGRP was more potent than that of VIP. The single-injection model of SAH was produced by injection of fresh autologous arterial blood (1 ml/kg body weight) into the cisterna magna on Day 0 of the post-SAH period, and the double-injection model was produced by two injections of blood (0.5 ml/kg each) on Days 0 and 2. Narrowing of the basilar arteries on vertebral angiograms was most prominent on Day 3 or 7 in the single- or double-injection model, respectively. Relaxation of the basilar artery induced by CGRP and VIP was to some extent decreased on Days 3 and 7 of the post-SAH period in the single-injection model, and on Days 7 and 14 in the double-injection model. However, the vasorelaxant effects of CGRP and VIP were significantly enhanced on Day 14 of the post-SAH period in the single-injection model, and on Days 28 and 42 in the double-injection model. Subsequently, these effects returned to control levels by Days 28 or 63 in the single- or double-injection model, respectively.
