Regulation of nitric oxide consumption by hypoxic red blood cells.
The homeostasis of nitric oxide (NO) is attained through a balance between its production and consumption. Shifts in NO bioavailability have been linked to a variety of diseases. Although the regulation of NO production has been well documented, its consumption is largely thought to be unregulated. Here, we have demonstrated that under hypoxic conditions, NO accelerates its own consumption by i...
متن کاملOptimizing Red Blood Cells Consumption Using Markov Decision Process
In healthcare systems, one of the important actions is related to perishable products such as red blood cells (RBCs) units that its consumption management in different periods can contribute greatly to the optimality of the system. In this paper, main goal is to enhance the ability of medical community to organize the RBCs units’ consumption in way to deliver the unit order timely with a focus ...
متن کاملArginase regulates red blood cell nitric oxide synthase and export of cardioprotective nitric oxide bioactivity.
The theory that red blood cells (RBCs) generate and release nitric oxide (NO)-like bioactivity has gained considerable interest. However, it remains unclear whether it can be produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), which is present in RBCs, and whether NO can escape scavenging by hemoglobin. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that arginase reciprocally controls NO formation in...
متن کاملEffects of nitric oxide on red blood cell deformability.
In addition to its known action on vascular smooth muscle, nitric oxide (NO) has been suggested to have cardiovascular effects via regulation of red blood cell (RBC) deformability. The present study was designed to further explore this possibility. Human RBCs in autologous plasma were incubated for 1 h with NO synthase (NOS) inhibitors [N(omega)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME) and S-meth...
متن کاملRed Blood Cell Nitric Oxide as an Endocrine Vasoregulator
Background—A respiratory cycle for nitric oxide (NO) would involve the formation of vasoactive metabolites between NO and hemoglobin during pulmonary oxygenation. We investigated the role of these metabolites in hypoxic tissue in vitro and in vivo in healthy subjects and patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods and Results—We investigated the capacity for red blood cells (RBCs) to ...
