How exogenous nitric oxide regulates nitrogen assimilation in wheat seedlings under different nitrogen sources and levels
Nitrogen (N) is one of the most important nutrients for plants and nitric oxide (NO) as a signaling plant growth regulator involved in nitrogen assimilation. Understanding the influence of exogenous NO on nitrogen metabolism at the gene expression and enzyme activity levels under different sources of nitrogen is vitally important for increasing nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). This study investig...
متن کاملEffects of nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide on bacterial growth.
The effects of low concentrations of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) on actively dividing cultures of Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Micrococcus roseus, Serratia marcescens, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus circulans, Bacillus megaterium, and Bacillus cereus were studied. Fresh cultures of each organism were incubated for 24 h at 25 degrees C on both nutrient agar and minera...
متن کاملArginase regulates red blood cell nitric oxide synthase and export of cardioprotective nitric oxide bioactivity.
The theory that red blood cells (RBCs) generate and release nitric oxide (NO)-like bioactivity has gained considerable interest. However, it remains unclear whether it can be produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), which is present in RBCs, and whether NO can escape scavenging by hemoglobin. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that arginase reciprocally controls NO formation in...
متن کامل(-)-epicatechin activation of endothelial cell endothelial nitric oxide synthase, nitric oxide, and related signaling pathways.
Recent reports indicate that (-)-epicatechin can exert cardioprotective actions, which may involve endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)-mediated nitric oxide production in endothelial cells. However, the mechanism by which (-)-epicatechin activates eNOS remains unclear. In this study, we proposed to identify the intracellular pathways involved in (-)-epicatechin-induced effects on eNOS, usi...
متن کاملNitric oxide regulates lymphatic contractions
We appreciate the opportunity to respond to Michael J. Davis’s Letter (1) regarding our paper “Mechanobiological Oscillators Control Lymph Flow” (2). Our model was developed to study phasic contractions and the dynamics of NO and calcium rather than the control of basal tone. Many factors—in addition to NO—affect lymphatic baseline diameter, including inflammatory cytokines and hormones, and th...
