Nitric oxide signalling in insects.
The gas, nitric oxide (NO), was first described as a second messenger molecule at least a decade ago; since then, research into mechanisms of intracellular generation of NO and of the functional role of the NO signalling pathway has generated thousands of research papers, many reviews and a Nobel Prize. This reflects the fundamental importance of NO and its signalling processes in biology and m...
متن کاملNitric oxide signaling in plants
Nitric oxide (NO) is now seen as a vitally important molecule in many biological systems. Once it was identified in mammalian systems in 1987 (Palmer et al., 1987) it was only a matter of time before researchers hunted for its presence in plants, with the first such reports being published in 1998 (Delledonne et al., 1998; Durner et al., 1998). Now 15 years later the interest in NO and its role...
متن کاملNitric oxide-endothelin-1 interaction in humans.
Healthy men received NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) intravenously to study cardiovascular and metabolic effects of nitric oxide synthase blockade and whether this alters the response to endothelin-1 (ET-1) infusion. Controls only received ET-1. L-NMMA effects were that heart rate (17%) cardiac output (17%), and splanchnic and renal blood flow (both 33%) fell promptly (all P < 0.01). Mean art...
متن کاملNitric oxide production and signaling in inflammation.
Nitric oxide (NO) is recognized as a mediator and regulator of inflammatory responses. It possesses cytotoxic properties that are aimed against pathogenic microbes, but it can also have damaging effects on host tissues. NO reacts with soluble guanylate cyclase to form cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which mediates many of the effects of NO. NO can also interact with molecular oxygen and ...
متن کاملHemoglobin-mediated nitric oxide signaling.
The rate that hemoglobin reacts with nitric oxide (NO) is limited by how fast NO can diffuse into the heme pocket. The reaction is as fast as any ligand/protein reaction can be and the result, when hemoglobin is in its oxygenated form, is formation of nitrate in what is known as the dioxygenation reaction. As nitrate, at the concentrations made through the dioxygenation reaction, is biologicall...
