5' mRNA variants of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) are generated either by alternative promoter usage resulting in different mRNAs that encode for the same protein (nNOSalpha) or alternative splicing encoding NH(2)-terminally truncated proteins (nNOSbeta/gamma) that lack the PDZ/GLGF domain for protein-protein interaction of nNOSalpha. We studied the expression of 5' nNOS mRNA forms and ...
The present study used nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) antisense oligos (nNOS AS-ODN) to assess the role of nNOS in motoneuron death induced by spinal root avulsion. A right seventh cervical (C7) spinal root avulsion was performed on adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. Two weeks later, FITC-labeled random oligos (FITC-R-ODN), nNOS AS-ODN, R-ODN or TE buffer was applied to the lesioned side of the C7 s...
The spatiotemporal regulation of neurotransmitter transporters involves proteins that interact with their intracellular domains. Using a proteomic approach, we identified several proteins that interact with the C terminus of the serotonin transporter (SERT). These included neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), a PSD-95/Disc large/ZO-1 (PDZ) domain-containing protein recruited by the atypical P...
PURPOSE There are increased levels of nitric oxide (NO) in diabetic retinas. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent that neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) contributes to the increased levels of retinal NO in early diabetic retinopathy by examining the expression and activity of nNOS in retinal neurons after 5 weeks of diabetes. METHODS Changes in NO levels were measured usi...
Nitric oxide (NO) is responsible for nitrergic neurotransmission in the gut, and its release is dependent on its de novo synthesis by neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). The magnitude of NO synthesis and release during neurotransmission may be related to the fraction of catalytically active nNOS out of a larger pool of inactive nNOS in the nerve terminals. The purpose of the present study wa...
Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase (nNOS) is the biosynthetic enzyme responsible for nitric oxide (·NO) production in muscles and in the nervous system. This constitutive enzyme, unlike its endothelial and inducible counterparts, presents an N-terminal PDZ domain known to display a preference for PDZ-binding motifs bearing acidic residues at -2 position. In a previous work, we discovered that the C...
Nitric oxide synthases (NOS, E.C. 1.14.13.39) are a family of oxidoreductases that synthesize nitric (NO.) via the NADPH and oxygen-dependent consumption L-arginine with resultant by-product, L-citrulline. There 3 NOS isoforms they related by their capacity to produce NO, highly conserved organization functional domains significant homology at amino acid level. functionally distinguished cell t...
We investigated the role of neuronal (type I) nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in NMDA-mediated excitotoxicity in wild-type (SV129 and C57BL/6J) and type I NOS knock-out (nNOS-/-) mice and examined its relationship to apoptosis. Excitotoxic lesions were produced by intrastriatal stereotactic NMDA microinjections (10-20 nmol). Lesion size was dose- and time-dependent, completely blocked by MK-801 pr...
AIMS Previously, we showed an enhanced excitatory (N-methyl d-aspartate receptor-NR(1)) and decreased inhibitory neuronal nitric oxide (NO) synthase (nNOS) influence within the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of rats with chronic heart failure (CHF). Although NR(1) and nNOS are normally linked, they can be disconnected by nNOS sequestering with nNOS-associated protein (CAPON). The aim of this stu...
In the nervous system within physiological conditions, nitric oxide (NO) production depends on the activity of nitric oxide synthases (NOSs), and particularly on the expression of the neuronal isoform (nNOS). In the sensory systems, the role of NO is poorly understood. In this study, we identified nNOS-positive cells in the inner nuclear layer (INL) of the rat retina, with distinct characterist...
