The role of hippocampal nitric oxide in passive avoidance learning

Abstract: Introduction: Nitric oxide (NO) is a retrograde messenger in hippocampal synaptic plasticity which involves in learning and memory processes. Previous studies revealed that hippocampal pyramidal cells contain NO synthase (NOS) enzyme which produce NO and could be a promising target to evaluate the role of NO in brain cognitive functions. So in this study, using NOS inhibitor (L-NAME)...

Role of Angiotensin II in Reactive Oxygen Species Production and Modulatory Role of Nitric Oxide (NO) in Vessel Responses to AngII in Acute Joint Inflammation in the Rabbit

Introduction: It has been approved that in most tissues NO production increases during acute inflammation and Angiotensin II has a role in production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). As regulation of joint blood flow (JBF) is important in this situation, this study was performed to investigate the interaction of local Ang II and ROS production and the modulatory role of NO on regulation of JBF...

lead exposure changes gastric acid secretion in rat: role of nitric oxide (no)

sub chronic exposure to lead in rats slows gastric emptying, but little is known about the effects of lead on gastric secretion. this study was designed to investigate the effects of lead on gastric acid secretion and its possible mechanisms in rats. lead acetate was dissolved in drinking water in a concentration of 1%. sodium acetate-containing water with a molar concentration similar to lead ...

Correlation between Nitric oxide (NO) & Asymmetric dimethylargininie (ADMA) Hemoglobin
