Cerebral vasospasm, a common complication of SAH, is a leading cause of delayed ischemic injury. Oxidative stress and inflammation are central to the pathophysiology of vasospasm. Vitamin B12, a water-soluble vitamin with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, has shown potential neuroprotective effects in experimental models. This study aimed to investigate the effects of vitamin B12 on vascular changes, oxidative stress, and inflammatory markers in an experimental rat model of SAH. Eighteen Sprague Dawley rats were divided into three groups: a control group, an SAH group, and an SAH\u2009+\u2009B12 group. SAH was induced by injecting autologous blood into the cisterna magna. The SAH\u2009+\u2009B12 group received intraperitoneal B12 (15 mcg\/kg) at 1 and 24\u00a0h post-SAH. Biochemical parameters, including total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS), oxidative stress index (OSI), and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1\u03b2, IL-6, TNF-\u03b1), were analyzed. Histopathological evaluation of the basilar artery was performed, measuring arterial diameter and wall thickness. The SAH group exhibited significant elevations in TOS, OSI, IL-1\u03b2, IL-6, and TNF-\u03b1 levels, along with decreased TAS, indicating heightened oxidative stress and inflammation. The SAH\u2009+\u2009B12 group showed significant reductions in TOS, OSI, and inflammatory cytokines compared to the SAH group (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.05), alongside improved TAS levels. Histopathological findings demonstrated reduced arterial wall thickening and preserved lumen diameter in the SAH\u2009+\u2009B12 group compared to the untreated SAH group. Although the differences in arterial diameter and wall thickness were not statistically significant, the findings suggest that B12 may mitigate SAH-induced vascular injury by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation. These results highlight B12's potential as a therapeutic agent for SAH-related vasospasm. Further studies are needed to validate these findings in larger populations and clinical settings.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10143-025-03576-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,15]],"date-time":"2025-05-15T17:22:08Z","timestamp":1747329728000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Microscopic, stereological, and biochemical investigation of the effects of vitamin B12 on vascular changes in an experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage model in rats"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"48","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0826-5965","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Murat","family":"Y\u00fccel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2045-6721","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ey\u00fcp","family":"\u00c7etin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5226-6730","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cumaali","family":"Demirta\u015f","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3595-5088","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cansu","family":"S\u00f6nmez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3706-5193","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hakan","family":"Beyazta\u015f","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4351-1719","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eray Metin","family":"G\u00fcler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,15]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"3576_CR1","first-page":"115","volume":"28","author":"M\u00d6 Kas\u0131mcan","year":"2018","unstructured":"Kas\u0131mcan M\u00d6, G\u00f6ker B, Hamamc\u0131o\u011flu MK, K\u0131r\u0131\u015f T (2018) Serebral vazospazm\u0131n etiyolojisi.
