Nitric oxide (NO) production in endothelial cells (EC) is regulated by multisite phosphorylation of specific serine and threonine residues in endothelial NO synthase (eNOS). Among these, eNOS-Ser116 is phosphorylated in the basal state, and its phosphorylation contributes to basal NO production. Here, we investigated the mechanism by which eNOS-Ser116 is phosphorylated during the basal state us...
Endothelial dysfunction in vascular disease states is associated with reduced NO bioactivity and increased superoxide (O2*-) production. Some data suggest that an important mechanism underlying endothelial dysfunction is endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) uncoupling, whereby eNOS generates O2*- rather than NO, possibly because of a mismatch between eNOS protein and its cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin ...
of APP expression and processing in vivo, we used brain and cerebral microvessels from eNOS-deficient (eNOS / ) mice. Brain tissue from eNOS / mice had statistically higher APP and BACE1 protein levels, as well as increased BACE1 enzyme activity and A (A 1-42 wild-type control, 0.737pg/mg; eNOS / , 1.475 pg/mg; P<0.05), compared with wild-type controls (n 6 to 8 animals per background). Brain m...
OBJECTIVES Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor for endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activity. BH4 levels are regulated by de novo biosynthesis; the rate-limiting enzyme is GTP cyclohydrolase I (GTPCH). BH4 activates and promotes homodimerisation of purified eNOS protein, but the intracellular mechanisms underlying BH4-mediated eNOS regulation in endothelial cells remain l...
This study was conducted to evaluate the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in ovarian follicles and corpora lutea (CL) throughout the estrous cycle in sheep. Three experiments were conducted to (1) immunolocalize eNOS protein, (2) determine expression of mRNA for eNOS and its receptor guanylate cyclase 1 soluble beta3 (GUCY1B3), and (3) co-localize eNOS and vascular endothe...
BACKGROUND C-reactive protein (CRP), the prototypic marker of inflammation, has been shown to be an independent predictor of cardiovascular events. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) deficiency is a pivotal event in atherogenesis. METHODS AND RESULTS We tested the effect of CRP on eNOS expression and bioactivity in cultured human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs). CRP decreased eNOS mRNA...
Despite the evidence that cytokines stimulate nitric oxide (NO) production by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), several reports recently demonstrated that the hypotensive response related to endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activity could be inhibited by the same cytokines. The aim of the present work was to analyze whether NO generated by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) could...
At birth, ventilation and oxygenation immediately decrease pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and increase pulmonary blood flow (PBF); more gradual changes occur over the next several hours. Nitric oxide, produced by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), mediates these gradual changes. To determine how ventilation and oxygenation affect eNOS gene expression, 12 fetal lambs were ventilated ...
AIM Pentoses are widely abundant in organic food. Thermal treatment of pentoses leads to the formation of norfuraneol (NF). The aim of this study was to show whether NF, which is taken up regularly, for example with cooked food, affects the human endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) system. METHODS AND RESULTS The study was performed using cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Production of NO by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) plays a protective role in cerebral ischemia. We studied the effects of transient focal ischemia on eNOS expression. METHODS Wistar rats (n=72) underwent reversible filament occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery for 75 minutes. After 6, 24, 72, or 168 hours of reperfusion, brains were removed and coronal section...
