Vasospasm is a consequence of erythrocyte lysis in the subarachnoid space that releases hemoglobin and possibly other spasmogenic substances. Removing the blood clot early after SAH, either surgically or by intracisternal fibrinolysis with tissue plasminogen activator or urokinase, may prevent vasospasm [1]. In view of the critical role that hemoglobin appears to play in the pathogenesis of vasospasm, modification of the metabolism of hemoglobin and heme may be im- portant to preventing vasospasm. Oxidation of ferrous iron in oxy- or deoxyhemoglobin produces meth- emoglobin that more readily releases its heme groups from the globin chains. Globin chains probably are degraded by intra- and extracellular proteases. The heme group is metabolized to biliverdin, carbon mon- oxide (CO) and iron by heme oxygenases (HO) that consist of at least 3 isozymes including the oxidative stress-inducible protein HO-1 [2].
