Nitric oxide synthases in mammals [PDF]
Nitric oxide is an inorganic free radical gas, of formula *N=O (abbreviated as NO). The discovery in 1987/88 that vascular endothelial cells are able to synthesize NO from L-arginine as a transcellular signal [1-4] was initially received by most biologists with considerable scepticism.

Tonic and phasic nitric oxide signals in hippocampal long-term potentiation [PDF]
Nitric oxide ( NO) participates in long-term potentiation (LTP) and other forms of synaptic plasticity in many different brain areas but where it comes from and how it acts remain controversial.

Background Previous work has suggested that in the liver, adenosine preconditioning is mediated by nitric oxide. Whether the endothelial isoform of nitric oxide synthase plays a part in this mechanism has however not yet been investigated. Methods Wistar

Nitric oxide synthase:non-canonical expression patterns [PDF]
Science can move ahead by questioning established or canonical views and, so it may be with the enzymes, nitric oxide synthases (NOS). Nitric oxide (NO) is generated by NOS isoforms that are often described by their tissue-specific expression patterns ...

The aim of the study was to verify the hypothesis that intoxication with low doses of mycotoxins leads to changes in the mRNA expression levels of nitric oxide synthase-1 and nitric oxide synthase-2 genes in tissues of the gastrointestinal tract and the ...

Signaling from blood vessels to CNS axons through nitric oxide [PDF]
Brain function is usually perceived as being performed by neurons with the support of glial cells, the network of blood vessels situated nearby serving simply to provide nutrient and to dispose of metabolic waste.

Elevated N -methyl-D-aspartate receptor activity contributes to central sensitization. Our laboratories and others recently reported that disrupting protein–protein interactions downstream of N -methyl-D-aspartate receptors suppresses pain. Specifically,

Is there NO treatment for severe sepsis? [PDF]
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome in the presence of suspected or proven infection, and it may progress to or encompass organ failure (severe sepsis) and hypotension (septic shock).
