Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor preserves p21 and endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension in rats.
BACKGROUND Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is associated with structural changes in the pulmonary vasculature characterized by the proliferation of cellular components of the vessels. ACE inhibitor (ACEI) may have beneficial effects in treating PAH, but its precise mechanism of action in the remodeling process is unclear. p21 is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor that may have a protecti...
متن کاملEffect of dexamethasone on the endothelin-1 (ET-1) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) genes expression during hepatic warm ischemia/reperfusion in rat
Background: Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/RI) is a multifactorial pathophysiologic process which can lead to liver damage and dysfunction. This study examined the protective effect of dexamethasone on the gene expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) and on the liver tissue damage during warm hepatic I/R. Materials and Methods: A total of 32 mal...

15 صفحه اولParadoxical activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase by NADPH oxidase.
OBJECTIVE Increased formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been identified as a causative factor in endothelial dysfunction by reducing NO bioavailability and uncoupling endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). However, the specific contribution of ROS to endothelial function is not well understood. METHODS AND RESULTS A major source of intracellular ROS is the NADPH oxidase (Nox) fa...
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...
