Gold Nanoparticles Coated With the Antimicrobial Peptide Os‐C(W5): Anticandidal and Biological Activity

Journal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
Gold nanoparticles conjugated with a tick‐derived antimicrobial peptide, Os‐C(W5), demonstrate enhanced proteolytic stability and potent antifungal activity against Candida albicans biofilms and planktonic cells. These non‐cytotoxic nanoconjugates represent a promising biocompatible strategy for combating resistant fungal infections while maintaining ...

Sodium nitroprusside modulates gene expression involved in glutathione synthesis in Zea mays leaves

, 2012
To investigate a possible involvement of nitric oxide in gene regulation of glutathione and flavonoid synthesis pathways, maize seedlings were treated with sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a NO donor, and apocynin (APO), an inducer of NO production.

Slit2/Robo Signaling Restores Diabetic Erectile Function via Neurovascular Remodeling

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 1831-1846, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus‐induced erectile dysfunction (DMED) is a common and debilitating vascular‐neurogenic complication of diabetes. The poor responsiveness of DMED patients to phosphodiesterase type‐5 inhibitors underscores the need for therapies capable of restoring both endothelial integrity and cavernous nerve function.

Inotropic, vascular and neuroendocrine effects of nifedipine in heart failure: Comparison with nitroprusside [PDF]

, 1985
To evaluate the short-term hemodynamic and neuroendocrine effects of nifedipine in heart failure, it was compared with nitroprusside, a balanced vasodilator without known inotropic effect, in equihypotensive doses during right and left heart ...

The effect of Nitroprusside on the renal ischaemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2002
Nitric oxide (NO) is implicated as an important mediator of, or intermediary in, inflammation, immunity and neurotransmission. In the kidney, No is involved in haemodynamic regulation, control of vascular tone and tubular function.

The Unexpected Role of Calcium‐Activated Potassium Channels: Limitation of NO‐Induced Arterial Relaxation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundMultiple studies have shown that an NO‐induced activation of vascular smooth muscle BK channels contributes to the NO‐evoked dilation in many blood vessels. In vivo, NO is released continuously. NO attenuates vessel constrictions and, therefore,

Icodextrin with nitroprusside increases ultrafiltration and peritoneal transport during long CAPD dwells [PDF]

, 1998
Icodextrin with nitroprusside increases ultrafiltration and peritoneal transport during long CAPD dwells. Addition of the nitric oxide (NO) donor nitroprusside to 1.36% glucose dialysate enlarges the effective peritoneal surface area during four-hour ...

Exogenous Sodium Nitroprusside Alleviates Drought Stress in Lagenaria siceraria

Plants
Drought is one of the non-biological stresses that affect the growth and development of plants globally, especially Lagenaria siceraria plants. As a common nitric oxide (NO) donor, sodium nitroprusside plays a significant role in enhancing the resistance
