Nitric oxide and glomerulonephritis [PDF]
The glomerulus is a unique vascular network with the potential to express several isoforms of nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Induction of inducible NOS (iNOS) occurs as part of a rapid initial response to immune injury in glomerulonephritis (GN). Studies on rodent models suggest that this is due to activation of transcription factors by reactive oxygen ...

Biotransformation of Nitric Oxide [PDF]
Previous investigations into the health effects of nitrogen oxides (NOx) have mostly been conducted with special reference to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and its direct effects on the respiratory system, while the study of nitric oxide (NO) has been disregarded.
