Modeling co-operative volume signaling in a plexus of nitric oxide synthase-expressing neurons [PDF]
In vertebrate and invertebrate brains, nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS) is frequently expressed in extensive meshworks (plexuses) of exceedingly fine fibers.

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 ...

Involvement of Nitric Oxide in Microcirculatory Reactions after Ischemia-Reperfusion of the Rat Urinary Bladder [PDF]
Background: Nitric oxide ( NO) plays a role in inflammation. Our aim was to investigate the role of NO in the microcirculatory changes after ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) of the bladder using intravital videomicroscopy (IVM).

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

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).

Mammalian nitric oxide synthases
The nitric oxide (NO) synthase family of enzymes generate NO from L-arginine, which acts as a biologic effector molecule in a broad number of settings. This report summarizes some of the current information regarding NO synthase structure-function, reaction mechanism, control of catalysis, and protein interactions.

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 ...

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.
