متن کاملNitric oxide inhibits ATP release from erythrocytes.
Erythrocytes have been reported to release ATP from intracellular stores into the surrounding environment in response to decreased oxygen tension and mechanical deformation. This erythrocyte-derived ATP can then act on purinergic receptors present on vascular endothelial cells, resulting in the synthesis and bidirectional release of nitric oxide (NO). NO released abluminally produces relaxation...
متن کاملModulation of nitric oxide bioavailability by erythrocytes.
Nitric oxide (NO) activates soluble guanylyl cyclase in smooth muscle cells to induce vasodilation in the vasculature. However, as hemoglobin (Hb) is an effective scavenger of NO and is present in high concentrations inside the red blood cell (RBC), the bioavailability of NO would be too low to elicit soluble guanylyl cyclase activation in the presence of blood. Therefore, NO bioactivity must b...
متن کاملNitric oxide within the rat hippocampal CA1 area may play a role in morphine tolerance
Hippocampus as part of the limbic system plays an important role in abused drugs-induced memory. The role of glutamate receptor within the hippocampal CA1 area in morphine-induced memory has also been postulated. Previous studies indicated that glutamate receptors exert their effects in part through the release of nitric oxide (NO). In the present study, the effects of intra-CA1 area injections...
متن کاملDoubts concerning functional endothelial nitric oxide synthase in human erythrocytes.
reason that Schoenwaelder and Jackson did not observe an increase in cytosolic free calcium at higher concentrations of ABT-263 is unclear but may well relate to differences such as higher platelet density (3 108 cells/mL used by them compared with the lower cell density 5 107 cells/mL used in our study).3 In this regard we have previously reported that the efficacy of both ABT-263 (Navitoclax)...
