Urea inhibits inducible nitric oxide synthase in macrophage cell line.

Macrophage dysfunction is considered an important contributory factor for increased propensity of infections in uremia. Because nitric oxide (NO) is believed to be an effector molecule of macrophage cytotoxicity, we propose that the dysfunction may be related to impaired NO synthesis. To verify this hypothesis, we evaluated macrophage NO synthesis in the presence of urea, a compound that accumu...

Inducible nitric oxide synthase in a human glioblastoma cell line.

Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity was induced in the cytosol of A-172 cells by treatment with lipopolysaccharide, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interferon-gamma. A 130-kDa human inducible NOS (iNOS) protein was detected with anti-rat iNOS antibody by western blot analysis. Northern blot analysis showed that the iNOS mRNA was approximately 4.5 kb, using a cDNA fragment for human iNOS, isol...

Resveratrol Increases Nitric Oxide Synthase, Induces

Epidemiological studies have shown that the regular consumption of red wine may in part account for the apparent compatibility of a high fat diet with a low incidence of coronary atherosclerosis. This phenomenon, commonly referred to as the French paradox, may be associated with red wine constituents that exhibit tumor-preventive properties as well as inhibit reactions that increase the risk of...

Nitric oxide stress in sporadic inclusion body myositis muscle fibres: inhibition of inducible nitric oxide synthase prevents interleukin-1β-induced accumulation of β-amyloid and cell death.

Sporadic inclusion body myositis is a severely disabling myopathy. The design of effective treatment strategies is hampered by insufficient understanding of the complex disease pathology. Particularly, the nature of interrelationships between inflammatory and degenerative pathomechanisms in sporadic inclusion body myositis has remained elusive. In Alzheimer's dementia, accumulation of β-amyloid...

Inducible nitric oxide synthase immunoreactivity in healthy rat pancreas.

Nitric oxide (NO) is produced by NO synthase (NOS) isoforms: neuronal NOS (nNOS), endothelial NOS (eNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS). It is believed that, while nNOS and eNOS are effective in regulation of normal physiological processes, iNOS is expressed at an increasing rate especially in inflammatory process. The aim of this study was to determine the presence of iNOS immunoreactivity (iNOS-IR)...
