Effects of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) on the improvement of cerebral energy metabolism and microcirculation were examined in postische-mic rat brain.

Male Wistar rats, whose vertebral arteries were elecrically cauterized last day, were subjected to forebrain ischemia by temporary clipping of both common carotid arteries. After 60 min of ischemic insult, they were intravenously administered with SAM at doses of 30 or 100 mg/kg ; this was fol-lowed by recirculation for 60 min. To determine cerebral concentrations of energy metabolites, the brain was frozen in situ. Adenine nucleotides (ATP, ADP, AMP) were assayed by anion-ex-change HPLC system, and other metabolites (PCr, glucose, lactate, pyruvate) were analyzed by enzy-matic fluorometry. In order to estimate regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and glucose utiliza-tion, double-tracer autoradiography was undertaken using 14C-iodoantipyrine (14C-IAP) and 18F-fluoro-deoxyglucose (18F-FDG).

In animals without SAM treatment (60-60 group), energy metabolites did not recover and neither CBF nor glucose uptake resored during 60 min of recirculation. In contrast, in SAM-treated animals (60-60 SAM group), values of the energy metabo-lites improved significantly and both CBF and glucose uptake recovered, though incompletely. These results indicate that SAM is able to im-prove postischemic cerebral microcirculation and energy metabolism. For mechanisms of the effects, it is suggested to the enhancement of erythrocyte deformability by phospholipid methylation, the stabilization of mitochondria, and the normaliza-tion of injured metabolic reactions. Therefore, we conclude that SAM is able to be effective clini-cally as a drug treated for the actute phase of cerebrovascular diseases.
