Regulation of diaphragmatic nitric oxide synthase expression during hypobaric hypoxia.
Nitric oxide (NO) is normally synthesized inside skeletal muscle fibers by both endothelial (eNOS) and neuronal (nNOS) nitric oxide synthases. In this study, we evaluated the influence of hypobaric hypoxia on the expression of NOS isoforms, argininosuccinate synthetase (AS), argininosuccinate lyase (AL), and manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn SOD) in the ventilatory muscles. Rats were exposed t...
متن کاملPosttranscriptional regulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase during cell growth.
The expression of the endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) is dramatically influenced by the state of cell growth. In proliferating cells, mRNA levels are increased 4-fold compared with postconfluent, nonproliferating cells. Nuclear run-on analysis indicated that there is no difference in the transcriptional rate of eNOS in proliferating versus postconfluent cells. The half-life of eNOS mRNA, measure...
متن کاملCellular regulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase.
Renal function is highly dependent on endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO). Several renal disorders have been linked to impaired NO bioavailability. The enzyme that is responsible for the synthesis of NO within the renal endothelium is endothelial NO synthase (eNOS). eNOS-mediated NO generation is a highly regulated cellular event, which is induced by calcium-mobilizing agonists and fluid shea...
متن کاملChronic Hypoxia Increases Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Generation of Nitric Oxide
Chronic hypoxia increases endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) production of nitric oxide (·NO) and cardioprotection in neonatal rabbit hearts. However, the mechanism by which this occurs remains unclear. Recent studies suggest that heat shock protein 90 (hsp90) alters eNOS function. In the present study, we examined the role of hsp90 in eNOS-dependent cardioprotection in neonatal rabbit he...
متن کاملRegulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase by small RNA.
Repeats (27-nt) in intron 4 have been shown to play a cis-acting role in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) promoter activity. We hypothesize that the 27-nt repeats could be the source of small nuclear RNA specifically regulating eNOS expression. In this study, we used synthesized 27-nt RNA duplex and found that the eNOS gene transcriptional efficiency was reduced 63% (0.047 +/- 0.009 vs....
