Nitric oxide mediates local activity-dependent excitatory synapse development.
Learning related paradigms play an important role in shaping the development and specificity of synaptic networks, notably by regulating mechanisms of spine growth and pruning. The molecular events underlying these synaptic rearrangements remain poorly understood. Here we identify NO signaling as a key mediator of activity-dependent excitatory synapse development. We find that chronic blockade ...
متن کاملAlternatively spliced neuronal nitric oxide synthase mediates penile erection.
A key role for nitric oxide (NO) in penile erection is well established, but the relative roles of the neuronal NO synthase (nNOS) versus endothelial forms of NOS are not clear. nNOS- and endothelial NOS-deficient mice maintain erectile function and reproductive capacity, questioning the importance of NO. Alternatively, residual NO produced by shorter transcripts in the nNOS(-/-) animals might ...
متن کاملCyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of neuronal nitric oxide synthase mediates penile erection.
Nitric oxide (NO) generated by neuronal NO synthase (nNOS) initiates penile erection, but has not been thought to participate in the sustained erection required for normal sexual performance. We now show that cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of nNOS mediates erectile physiology, including sustained erection. nNOS is phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) at serine(S)1412. Electrica...
متن کاملDownregulation of Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase and Interleukin-1 Mediates Angiotensin II–Dependent Stimulation of Sympathetic Nerve Activity
There is substantial evidence that angiotensin II (Ang II) enhances sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity. We recently observed that nitric oxide and interleukin-1 (IL-1 ) exert a tonic inhibitory action on central SNS activity. Moreover, in 2 rat models of neurogenic hypertension, one caused by intrarenal injection of phenol and the other by 5/6 nephrectomy, we observed that losartan, an A...
