Association 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 کاملVascular endothelial growth factor up-regulates nitric oxide synthase expression in endothelial cells.
OBJECTIVE Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), secreted by vascular cells and a variety of tumour cells, is a potent angiogenic factor. Since nitric oxide (NO) seems to play a key role in the VEGF-induced proliferation of endothelial cells, the aim of the present study was to determine whether VEGF stimulates endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) expression and hence results in a maintained incr...
متن کاملPin1 prolyl isomerase regulates endothelial nitric oxide synthase.
OBJECTIVE The Pin1 prolyl isomerase acts in concert with proline-directed protein kinases to regulate function of protein substrates through isomerization of peptide bonds that link phosphoserine or phosphothreonine to proline. We sought to determine whether Pin1 interacts with endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in endothelial cells in a manner that depends on proline-directed phosphoryla...
متن کاملInteraction of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase with Mitochondria Regulates Oxidative
39 An increase in oxygen tension at birth is one of the key signals that initiate pulmonary 40 vasodilation in the fetal lung. We investigated the hypothesis that targeting endothelial 41 nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) to the mitochondrial outer membrane regulates reactive 42 oxygen species (ROS) formation in the fetal pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAEC) 43 during this transition. We isolat...
متن کاملEndothelial nitric oxide synthase regulates microlymphatic flow via collecting lymphatics.
Functional interactions between the initial and collecting lymphatics, as well as the molecular players involved, remain elusive. In this study, we assessed the influence of nitric oxide (NO) on lymphatic fluid velocity and flow, using a mouse tail model that permits intravital microscopy and microlymphangiography. We found that NO synthase (NOS) inhibition decreased lymphatic fluid velocity in...
