Nitric oxide synthase activity and isoforms in rat renal vasculature.
Experiments were performed to quantify nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity and identify the NOS isoforms present in the Sprague-Dawley rat renal vasculature. NOS enzymatic activity was measured by adding [(3)H]arginine to microdissected renal blood vessels and quantifying the conversion to [(3)H]citrulline by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Total NOS activity was greatest...
متن کاملInduction of calcium-independent nitric oxide synthase activity in primary rat glial cultures.
Exposure of primary cultures of neonatal rat cortical astrocytes to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) results in the appearance of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity. The induction of NOS, which is blocked by actinomycin D, is directly related to the duration of exposure and dose of LPS, and a 2-hr pulse can induce enzyme activity. Cytosol from LPS-treated astrocyte cultures, but not from co...
متن کاملNitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase activity in plants.
Research on NO in plants has gained considerable attention in recent years mainly due to its function in plant growth and development and as a key signalling molecule in different intracellular processes in plants. The NO emission from plants is known since the 1970s, and now there is abundant information on the multiple effects of exogenously applied NO on different physiological and biochemic...
متن کاملAloe vera toxic effects: expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in testis of Wistar rat
Objective(s): Nitric oxide (NO), a product of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), contributes in germ cell apoptosis. This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of Aloe vera gel (AVG) on male Wistar rat reproductive organ, serum NO level, and expression of iNOS gene in leydig cells. Materials and Methods:Adult male Wistar rats (n=36) were used for experiments in three groups. The experim...
متن کاملEffect of crocin on nitric oxide synthase expression in post-ischemic isolated rat heart
Objective: Oxidative stress damages cells and brings about the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion injury. This study was carried out to investigate the preconditioning and cardio protective potential effects of crocin and vitamin E by the eNOS and iNOS express gene in ischemia/reperfusion in rats. Material & Methods: Male rats were divided into seven groups, namely: sham, control group and ex...
