Inhibition on inducible nitric oxide synthase.
The scientific community has witnessed an exponential growth curve in the number of nitric oxide (NO) related publications over the last ten years. This diatomic radical is remarkably entangled (directly and indirectly) in a multitude of physiological and pathophysiological processes, including blood pressure regulation, inflammation, apoptosis, platelet adhesion, neurotransmission and host-def...
متن کاملProduction of Nitric Oxide and Expression of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase in Ovarian Cystic Tumors
Tumor sections from nonneoplastic (n = 15), benign (n = 28), and malignant ovarian tumors (n = 20) were obtained from 63 women. Immunohistochemistry of the tumor sections demonstrated that inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression was increased in ovarian cancer samples compared to nonneoplastic or benign tumor samples. Using the Griess method, nitric oxide (NO) metabolite levels were a...
متن کاملPneumococci stimulate the production of the inducible nitric oxide synthase and nitric oxide by murine macrophages.
The role of nitric oxide (NO) in the pathophysiology of gram-positive sepsis is uncertain. In inflammatory conditions, high-output NO production is catalyzed by the enzyme inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). The ability of 2 strains of pneumococci, pneumococcal cell wall preparations, and purified pneumococcal capsule (Pnu-Imune 23) to trigger the production of iNOS protein and NO in RAW 26...
متن کاملNitric oxide production and inducible nitric oxide synthase expression induced by Prevotella nigrescens lipopolysaccharide.
We have examined the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Prevotella nigrescens, one of the causative agents of inflammatory periodontal disease and endodontic infections, on the production of nitric oxide (NO) and expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the murine macrophage cell line RAW264.7. We also attempted to throw light on the signaling mechanisms involved in P. nigr...
