Here, we show that ischemia elevated the levels of nNOS‐Dexras1 complex and SNO‐Dexras1 in the peri‐infarct cortex in the days 4–10 after stroke induction, and as excepted, Tat‐CAPON‐12C, a peptide disrupting nNOS‐CAPON interaction, significantly reversed these changes. This evidence concerns the gene NOS1AP and ischemia.
