Chronic exercise in dogs increases coronary vascular nitric oxide production and endothelial cell nitric oxide synthase gene expression.
Recently, we have shown that chronic exercise increases endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF)/nitric oxide (NO)-mediated epicardial coronary artery dilation in response to brief occlusion and acetylcholine. This finding suggests that exercise can provide a stimulus for the enhanced production of EDRF/NO, thus possibly contributing to the beneficial effects of exercise on the cardiovascular...
متن کاملEXPRESSION OF INDUCIBLE NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE GENE (iNOS) STIMULATED BY HYDROGEN PEROXIDE IN HUMAN ENDOTHELIAL CELLS
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene expresses a calcium calmudolin-independent enzyme which can catalyse NO production from L-arginine. The induction of iNOS activity has been demonstrated in a wide variety of cell types under stimulation with cytokines and lipopoly saccharide (LPS). Previous studies indicated that all nitric oxide synthases (NOS) activated in human umbilical vein endot...
متن کاملChronic Hypoxia Increases Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Generation of Nitric Oxide
Chronic hypoxia increases endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) production of nitric oxide (·NO) and cardioprotection in neonatal rabbit hearts. However, the mechanism by which this occurs remains unclear. Recent studies suggest that heat shock protein 90 (hsp90) alters eNOS function. In the present study, we examined the role of hsp90 in eNOS-dependent cardioprotection in neonatal rabbit he...
متن کاملAssociation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene G894T polymorphism with type two diabetes and diabetic nephropathy
Background: Nitric oxide (NO) produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) mediates a large range of processes, and abnormality in the production of NO has been implicated in diabetic complications including diabetic nephropathy (DN). G894T polymorphism in the eNOS gene has been shown to decreased activity the NO levels of plasma. The association between eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and DN ri...
متن کاملEndothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphisms in giant cell arteritis.
OBJECTIVE To examine potential associations of the Glu/Asp(298) polymorphism in exon 7 and the 4a/b polymorphism in intron 4 of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene with susceptibility to and clinical expression of giant cell arteritis (GCA), particularly in patients with versus those without ischemic complications. METHODS Ninety-one consecutive patients with biopsy-proven GCA, ...
