متن کاملTwo faces of nitric oxide: implications for cellular mechanisms of oxygen toxicity.
Recent investigations have elucidated some of the diverse roles played by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in events that lead to oxygen toxicity and defend against it. The focus of this review is on toxic and protective mechanisms in hyperoxia that have been investigated in our laboratories, with an emphasis on interactions of nitric oxide (NO) with other endogenous chemical species and wi...
متن کاملTwo faces of nitric oxide: lessons learned from the NOS2 knockout.
Nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) comprise a family of enzymes that generate the freely diffusible, free radical gas NO, by the conversion of L-arginine to L-citrulline in the presence of O2 and NADPH. Bioactive derivatives of NO (NOx) are produced depending on the redox state of the cell and the availability of substrates and cofactors.1 The three NOSs arise from separate genes, but each NOS molec...
متن کاملThe many faces of nitric oxide: cytotoxic, cytoprotective or both.
Nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as a major modulator of cellular function in health and disease. In addition to its well-known role as a mediator of smooth muscle relaxation, a rapidly developing body of research suggests, paradoxically, that NO can have both cytotoxic and cytoprotective effects. In this issue of Neurogastroenterology and Motility, Choi et al. provide evidence that supports NO ha...
متن کاملAssociation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene G894T polymorphism with type two diabetes and diabetic nephropathy
Background: Nitric oxide (NO) produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) mediates a large range of processes, and abnormality in the production of NO has been implicated in diabetic complications including diabetic nephropathy (DN). G894T polymorphism in the eNOS gene has been shown to decreased activity the NO levels of plasma. The association between eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and DN ri...
