eNOS Function and Dysfunction in the Penis
Endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS) has an indispensable role in the erectile response. In the penis, eNOS activity and endothelial NO bioavailability are regulated by multiple post-translatlonal molecular mechanisms, such as eNOS phosphorylation, eNOS interaction with regulatory proteins and contractile pathways, and actions of reactive ...

Central role of eNOS in the maintenance of endothelial homeostasis.
SIGNIFICANCE Disruption of endothelial function is considered a key event in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is a central regulator of cellular function that is important to maintain ...

Red blood cell endothelial nitric oxide synthase: A major player in regulating cardiovascular health
Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) have traditionally been seen as simple carriers of gases and nutrients in the body. One important non‐canonical function of RBCs in the cardiovascular system is the regulation of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism. It has been shown that RBCs can scavenge NO, transport NO metabolites and produce NO in hypoxic conditions ...

The efficacy of nitric oxide in stroke (ENOS) trial – where do we stand in Romania? [PDF]
Introduction. Romania ranks third worldwide for stroke mortality. Although high blood pressure (BP) is a major risk factor for stroke incidence and determinant of outcome, the management of BP in acute stroke remains undefined. The present study assesses

Should the non‐canonical pathway of nitric oxide generation be targeted in hypertensive pregnancies?
Abstract Hypertension in pregnancy is prevalent, affecting around 10% of pregnancies worldwide, and significantly increases the risk of adverse outcomes for both mothers and their babies. Current treatment strategies for pregnant women with hypertension are limited, and new approaches for the management of hypertension in pregnancy are urgently needed.

Genetic Susceptibility to Retinopathy of Prematurity: A Paradigm for Preterm Disease Traits
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a vasoproliferative retinal disorder in premature infants that can lead to blindness and the incidence is increasing with increased survival of infants born at very early gestational age and low birth weight.
