Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) plays a critical role in regulating and maintaining healthy cardiovascular system. The importance of eNOS can be emphasized from the genetic polymorphisms gene, uncoupling dimerization, its numerous signaling regulations. activity on cardiac myocytes, vasculature, central nervous system are discussed. effects sympathetic autonomic (SANS) parasympathetic ...

Background: Nitric oxide (NO) produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) mediates a large range of processes, and abnormality in the production of NO has been implicated in diabetic complications including diabetic nephropathy (DN). G894T polymorphism in the eNOS gene has been shown to decreased activity the NO levels of plasma. The association between eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and DN ri...

background:   objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the expression of enos in the fts of women with tep.   materials and methods: in this case-control study, a total number of 30fts samples were obtained from three groups including: 10 fts of women that bearing an ep, 10 fts from the non-pregnant women at luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, and 10 fts of healthy pregnant women (n=10...

background: non obstructive azoospermia (noa) is one of the causes of male infertility in which spermatogenesis process is disturbed. recent studies suggested the possible role of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (enos) in spermatogenesis process. objective: the aim of the present study is to evaluate the expression of enos in human testicular tissue in men with noa and men with normal spermat...

We examined the hypothesis that contraction of the carotid arteries to serotonin is normally inhibited by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) and is enhanced in mice lacking the gene for eNOS. Because the influence of eNOS may vary with the sex of the mouse, we also tested whether responses to serotonin were dependent on sex. We studied carotid arteries in vitro from littermate control (eNOS(+/+)) m...

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is a multifunctional enzyme with roles in diverse cellular processes including angiogenesis, tissue remodeling, and the maintenance of vascular tone. Monomeric and dimeric forms of eNOS exist in various tissues. The dimeric form of eNOS is considered the active form and the monomeric form is considered inactive. The activity of eNOS is also regulated by ...
