The present invention provides a method for decreasing cerebral vasoconstriction in a subject suffering from chronic or acute cerebral amyloid angiopathy which comprises administering to the subject an inhibitor of receptor for advanced glycation endproduct (RAGE) in an effective amount to inhibit transcytosis of amyloid .beta. peptides across the blood-brain barrier in the subject, thereby decreasing cerebral vasoconstriction in the subject. The invention further provides for a method for ameliorating neurovascular stress in a subject which comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of an inhibitor of receptor for advanced glycation endproduct (RAGE), so as to increase cerebral blood flow in the subject, thereby ameliorating neurovascular stress in the subject.

La actual invención proporciona un método para disminuir la vasoconstricción cerebral en un tema que sufre de angiopathy amiloideo cerebral crónico o agudo que abarque administrando al tema un inhibidor del receptor para el endproduct avanzado del glycation (RABIA) en una cantidad eficaz para inhibir el transcytosis de los peptides amiloideos del beta. a través de la barrera blood-brain en el tema, de tal modo disminuyendo la vasoconstricción cerebral en el tema. La invención más futura preve un método para mejorar la tensión neurovascular en un tema que abarque administrar al tema a la cantidad eficaz de un inhibidor del receptor para el endproduct avanzado del glycation (RABIA), para aumentar flujo cerebral de la sangre en el tema, de tal modo mejorando la tensión neurovascular en el tema.
