The kinetics and regulation of the induction of type II nitric oxide synthase and nitric oxide in human fetal glial cell cultures [PDF]

Molecular Psychiatry, 1997
Our understanding of how human glial cells are induced to produce nitric oxide and how the production is regulated may allow us to better design therapeutic strategies for treating inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system in man. Cultures of human fetal astrocytes and microglia produce inducible nitric oxide synthase and nitric oxide in ...

Increased hepatic expression of nitric oxide synthase type II in cirrhotic rats

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004
To determine the role and effect of nitric oxide synthase type II (NOSII) in cirrhotic rats.Expression of NOSII mRNA was detected by real time RT-PCR. The activity of nitric oxide synthase and serum levels of NO, systemic and portal hemodynamics and degrees of cirrhosis were measured with high sensitive methods.

Influence of hyperhomocysteinemia on the cellular redox state - Impact on homocysteine-induced endothelial dysfunction [PDF]

, 2003
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. An increasing body of evidence has implicated oxidative stress as being contributory to homocysteines deleterious effects on the vasculature.

A novel long non-coding natural antisense RNA is a negative regulator of Nos1 gene expression [PDF]

, 2015
Long non-coding natural antisense transcripts (NATs) are widespread in eukaryotic species. Although recent studies indicate that long NATs are engaged in the regulation of gene expression, the precise functional roles of the vast majority of them are ...

Abnormal modulation of cell protective systems in response to ischemic/reperfusion injury is important in the development of mouse sickle cell hepatopathy

Haematologica, 2011
Background Sickle cell disease, a genetic red cell disorder inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, occurs throughout the world. Hepatic dysfunction and liver damage may be present in sickle cell disease, but the pathogenesis of these conditions is ...
