Nitric oxide synthase in CHF.
We read with great interest the paper by Comini et al. which demonstrates the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in circulating monocytes of patients with chronic heart failure. As we believe this paper reports upon a very important aspect of current research, we would like to comment on two aspects which we think are of special interest. Firstly, the activation of t...
متن کاملA reply (Nitric oxide synthase in CHF)
Porela et al. proposed that the definition for epidemiological classification of acute myocardial infarction could be based solely on a ‘specific cardiac marker’ such as creatine kinase MB mass. These suggestions exhibit a touching faith in the abilities of clinical biochemistry by the authors but betray a certain lack of understanding. 1. Reference ranges and diagnostic cut offs are set by ref...
متن کاملMitochondrial nitric oxide synthase.
Nitric oxide (NO) regulates several cellular functions via reversible regulation of mitochondrial respiration. Nitric oxide also reacts with mitochondrial superoxide anion to produce the potent oxidative species peroxynitrite that irreversibly hinders mitochondrial activities. Recent findings demonstrating that mitochondria produce NO via mitochondrial NO synthase (mtNOS) has intrigued several ...
متن کاملNitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase activity in plants.
Research on NO in plants has gained considerable attention in recent years mainly due to its function in plant growth and development and as a key signalling molecule in different intracellular processes in plants. The NO emission from plants is known since the 1970s, and now there is abundant information on the multiple effects of exogenously applied NO on different physiological and biochemic...
متن کاملNitric oxide/nitric oxide synthase, spermatogenesis, and tight junction dynamics.
During spermatogenesis, preleptotene and leptotene spermatocytes, residing in the basal compartment of the seminiferous epithelium, must traverse the blood-testis barrier (BTB) to gain entry to the adluminal compartment for further development at late stage VIII and early stage IX of the epithelial cycle. As such, the timely opening and closing of the BTB is crucial to spermatogenesis. A compro...
