Nitric Oxide synthases and atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation. There are multiple systems in the myocardium which contribute to redox homeostasis, and loss of homeostasis can result in oxidative stress.

The Effect of Pneumonic Pasteurellosis on Apoptosis and Nitric Oxide Synthase in the Lungs in Calves
Pneumonic Pasteurellosis (PP) is an infectious disease caused by Pasteurella multocida and Mannheimia haemolytica, mostly observed in cattle, sheep and calves. PP is characterized by fibrinous bronchopneumonia and pleuritis in the lungs.

Mesospheric nitric oxide model from SCIAMACHY data [PDF]
We present an empirical model for nitric oxide NO in the mesosphere ($\approx$60--90 km) derived from SCIAMACHY (SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartoghraphY) limb scan data. This work complements and extends the NOEM (Nitric Oxide Empirical Model; Marsh et al., 2004) and SANOMA (SMR Acquired Nitric Oxide Model Atmosphere ...

Nitric oxide-dependent activation of CaMKII increases diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release in cardiac myocytes in response to adrenergic stimulation. [PDF]
Spontaneous calcium waves in cardiac myocytes are caused by diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum release (SR Ca(2+) leak) through ryanodine receptors.

Inhibition of NOS- like activity in maize alters the expression of genes involved in H2O2 scavenging and glycine betaine biosynthesis [PDF]
Nitric oxide synthase-like activity contributes to the production of nitric oxide in plants, which controls plant responses to stress. This study investigates if changes in ascorbate peroxidase enzymatic activity and glycine betaine content in response

Doppler-free high resolution continuous wave optical UV-spectroscopy on the $\mathrm{A}\,^2Σ^+ \leftarrow \mathrm{X}\,^2Π_{3/2}$ transition in nitric oxide [PDF]
We report on Doppler-free continuous-wave optical UV-spectroscopy resolving the hyperfine structure of the $\mathrm{A}\,^2\Sigma^+ \leftarrow \mathrm{X}\,^2\Pi_{3/2}$ transition in nitric oxide for total angular momenta $J_X=1.5-19.5$ on the $\mathrm{oP_{12ee}}$ branch.
