Nitric Oxide Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Expression and Its Own Production Through the cGMP Signaling Pathway in Murine Microglia BV-2 Cells

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
The present study examined the effect of the nitric oxide (NO) donor NOC18 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NO production to investigate a regulation mechanism of NO production by microglial cells.

Cyclic Guanosine 3′ ,5′-Monophosphate and Gallbladder Contraction

Gastroenterology, 1974
Cholecystokinin, acetylcholine, and oxymetazoline stimulated guanylyl cyclase activity in rabbit gallbladder. Cholecystokinin and acetylcholine also raised the intracellular levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate in that tissue. The rise in intracellular cyclic guanosine monophosphate preceded and could mediate both the cholecystokinin- and ...

Role of Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate in Late Preconditioning in Conscious Rabbits [PDF]

Circulation, 2002
Background — Although NO has been shown to serve both as the trigger and the mediator of the late phase of ischemic preconditioning (PC), it is unknown whether NO acts via activation of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC).

Donkwa Enriched With Goron‐Tula (Azanza garckeana) Modulates Sexual Behavior and Activity of Enzymes Linked With Erectile Dysfunction in High‐Fat Diets/ Streptozotocin‐Induced (STZ/HFD) Diabetic Rats

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
(A) Mount number, (B) mount latency, (C) intromission number, and (D) intromission latency are the parameters of sexual behavior. Met = metformin. D100 = 100 Donkwa. D90G10 = 90% Donkwa + 10% Goron‐Tula. D85G15 = 85% Donkwa + 15% Goron‐Tula. D80G20 = 80% Donkwa + 20% Goron‐Tula. The mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM) expressed the results. *Values

Protective Effects of Riociguat Against Contrast‐Induced Nephropathy: An Experimental and Machine Learning‐Based Study in Rats

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contrast‐induced nephropathy (CIN) is an important cause of acute kidney injury following exposure to iodinated contrast media, and effective preventive strategies remain limited. This study investigated the renoprotective effects of riociguat, a soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, in an experimental rat model of CIN and explored machine ...

Sickle Cell Disease: Historical Overview and Current Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide, yet the limited treatment options currently available do not always adequately control the disease and carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment is hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, a procedure that carries considerable challenges and numerous ...

cGMP interacts with tropomyosin and downregulates actin-tropomyosin-myosin complex interaction

Respiratory Research, 2018
Background The nitric oxide-soluble guanylate cyclase-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (NO-sGC-cGMP) signaling pathway, plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH); however, its exact molecular mechanism remains ...

Synergistic effects and clinical utilization of radioimmunotherapy for brain metastases from driver mutation‐negative non‐small cell lung cancer

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how combining radiotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors overcomes the immunosuppressive brain microenvironment in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) brain metastases. The synergy enhances immune cell infiltration and systemic anti‐tumor activity, improving survival outcomes for patients.

DNA sensor cGAS-mediated immune recognition

Protein & Cell, 2016
The host takes use of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to defend against pathogen invasion or cellular damage. Among microorganism-associated molecular patterns detected by host PRRs, nucleic acids derived from bacteria or viruses are tightly ...

Structural Insights Into the Function of Leishmania major Adenylosuccinate Lyase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of several intriguing aspects of kinetoplastid biochemistry is the complete dependence on host purines and purine recycling due to the lack of a de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. Adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL, EC 4.3.2.2) is a key enzyme in the purine synthesis pathway responsible for the conversion of adenylosuccinate into adenosine ...
