Inhibition of nitric oxide biosynthesis by anthocyanin fraction of blackberry extract. [PDF]
Anthocyanins are natural colorant belonging to the flavonoid family, widely distributed among flowers, fruits, and vegetables. Some flavonoids have been found to possess anticarcinogenic, cytotoxic, cytostatic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory ...

Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase
Nitric oxide synthase (NOS), a flavo‐hemoprotein, regulates nitric oxide (NO) synthesis that has dual biological activities: as an important signalling molecule in vasodilatation and neurotransmission at low concentrations and at higher concentrations as

Postsynaptic α1-Adrenergic vasoconstriction is impaired in young patients with vasovagal syncope and is corrected by nitric oxide synthase inhibition [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Syncope is a sudden transient loss of consciousness and postural tone with spontaneous recovery; the most common form is vasovagal syncope (VVS).

Role of Dietary Polyphenols in the Activity and Expression of Nitric Oxide Synthases: A Review
Nitric oxide (NO) plays several key roles in the functionality of an organism, and it is usually released in numerous organs and tissues. There are mainly three isoforms of the enzyme that produce NO starting from the metabolism of arginine, namely ...

Nitric Oxide Synthase and Oxidative Stress: Regulation of Nitric Oxide Synthase
IntroductionIl a été constaté que l'oxyde nitrique joue un rôle important en tant que molécule signal dans de nombreuses parties de l'organisme ainsi qu'en tant que molécule effectrice cytotoxique de la réponse immunitaire non spécifique.L' oxyde nitrique est une fonction très importante à la fois chez les helminthes et les hôtes mammifères.L' oxyde ...

Elevated exhaled nitric oxide in allergen-provoked asthma is associated with airway epithelial iNOS.
BackgroundFractional exhaled nitric oxide is elevated in allergen-provoked asthma. The cellular and molecular source of the elevated fractional exhaled nitric oxide is, however, uncertain.ObjectiveTo investigate whether fractional exhaled nitric oxide is

Upregulation of inducible NO synthase by exogenous adenosine in vascular smooth muscle cells activated by inflammatory stimuli in experimental diabetes [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Adenosine has been shown to induce nitric oxide (NO) production via inducible NO synthase (iNOS) activation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Although this is interpreted as a beneficial vasodilating pathway in vaso-occlusive disorders,
