Until now, the role of nitric oxide (NO) in cornea irradiated with UVB rays remains unknown. Therefore, we investigated nitric oxide synthase isomers (NOS), enzymes that generate NO, nitrotyrosine (NT), a cytotoxic byproduct of NO, and malondialdehyde (MDA), a byproduct of lipid peroxidation, in rabbit corneas repeatedly irradiated with UVB rays (312 nm, 1x daily for 6 days, the dose per day 1....
Cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor-alpha and interferon gamma are associated with active pulmonary inflammation in sarcoidosis and they upregulate inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). The objectives of this study were to examine iNOS upregulation in sarcoidosis by showing raised exhaled nitric oxide and increased iNOS activity in lung biopsy specimens of these patients utilizing immuno...
An acute bout of aerobic exercise results in a reduced blood pressure that lasts several hours. Animal studies suggest this response is mediated by increased production of nitric oxide. We tested the extent to which systemic nitric oxide synthase inhibition [N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA)] can reverse the drop in blood pressure that occurs after exercise in humans. Eight healthy subjects u...
Individuals with asthma have increased levels of nitric oxide in their exhaled air. To explore its role, we have developed a regulatable transgenic mouse capable of overexpressing inducible nitric oxide synthase in a lung-specific fashion. The CC10-rtTA-NOS-2 mouse contains two transgenes, a reverse tetracycline transactivator under the control of the Clara cell protein promoter and the mouse n...
AIMS To evaluate the role of nitric oxide, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and natriuretic peptide receptor-B activation in C-type natriuretic peptide-anti-contractile effect on Phenylephrine-induced contraction in aorta isolated from septic rats. METHODS AND RESULTS Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) surgery was used to induce sepsis in male rats. Vascular reactivity was conducted in rat aorta...
In the present study we have extended our previous findings about the effects of 10 minutes of passive mandibular extension in anesthetized Wistar rats. By prolonging the observation time to 3 hours, we showed that 10 minutes mandibular extension caused a significant reduction of the mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate respect to baseline values, which persisted up to 160 minutes after ...
The influence of nitric oxide on human sperm hyperactivation and capacitation, as well as its mechanism of action and its possible origin from spermatozoa were studied. Percoll-washed spermatozoa from healthy volunteers were incubated in Ham's F-10 medium supplemented or not with the nitric oxide-releasing agents, diethylamine-NONOate or spermine-NONOate, in combination or not with superoxide d...
background: reduced bioavailability of nitric oxide (no) and the t?786c polymorphism of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (enos) gene have been reported as risk factors for the development of coronary artery disease (cad) with conflicting results. we investigated the association of plasma no levels, t?786c genetic polymorphism, and gene expression levels of enos with cad risk in an iranian subp...
Neuronal nitric oxide synthase is critically involved in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury resulting from combined burn and smoke inhalation injury. We hypothesized that 7-nitroindazole, a selective neuronal nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, blocks central molecular mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of this double-hit insult. Twenty-five adult ewes were surgically prepared and rando...
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...
