EXPRESSION OF INDUCIBLE NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE GENE (iNOS) STIMULATED BY HYDROGEN PEROXIDE IN HUMAN ENDOTHELIAL CELLS
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene expresses a calcium calmudolin-independent enzyme which can catalyse NO production from L-arginine. The induction of iNOS activity has been demonstrated in a wide variety of cell types under stimulation with cytokines and lipopoly saccharide (LPS). Previous studies indicated that all nitric oxide synthases (NOS) activated in human umbilical vein endot...
متن کاملAloe vera toxic effects: expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in testis of Wistar rat
Objective(s): Nitric oxide (NO), a product of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), contributes in germ cell apoptosis. This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of Aloe vera gel (AVG) on male Wistar rat reproductive organ, serum NO level, and expression of iNOS gene in leydig cells. Materials and Methods:Adult male Wistar rats (n=36) were used for experiments in three groups. The experim...
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...
متن کاملImprovement of Tissue Survival of Skin Flaps by 5α-Reductase Inhibitors: Possible Involvement of Nitric Oxide and Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase
Background: Skin flap grafting is a popular approach for reconstruction of critical skin and underlying soft tissue injuries. In a previous study, we demonstrated the beneficial effects of two 5α-reductase inhibitors, azelaic acid and finasteride, on tissue survival in a rat model of skin flap grafting. In the current study, we investigated the involvement of nitric oxide and inducible nitric o...
متن کاملEffect of crocin on nitric oxide synthase expression in post-ischemic isolated rat heart
Objective: Oxidative stress damages cells and brings about the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion injury. This study was carried out to investigate the preconditioning and cardio protective potential effects of crocin and vitamin E by the eNOS and iNOS express gene in ischemia/reperfusion in rats. Material & Methods: Male rats were divided into seven groups, namely: sham, control group and ex...
