Resveratrol, a natural antioxidant and polyphenol found in grapes and wine, has been found to pharmacologically precondition the heart through the upregulation of nitric oxide (NO). To gain further insight of the role of NO in resveratrol preconditioning, mouse hearts devoid of any copies of inhibitory NO synthase (iNOS) (iNOS knockout) and corresponding wild-type hearts were perfused with 10 m...
Methylmalonic acidemias consist of a group of inherited neurometabolic disorders caused by deficiency of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase activity clinically and biochemically characterized by neurological dysfunction, methylmalonic acid (MMA) accumulation, mitochondrial failure and increased reactive species production. Although previous studies have suggested that nitric oxide (NO) plays a role in th...
Pyroglutamyl leucine (pyroGlu-Leu), which is a peptide isolated from wheat gluten hydrolysate, has been reported to be a hepatoprotective compound in acute liver failure. In inflamed liver, proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-1β and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α stimulate the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Excess production of nitric oxide (NO) by iNOS is ...
Nitrosative stress compromises force generation in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Both inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and delocalized neuronal NOS (nNOS) have been implicated. We recently demonstrated that genetic elimination of nNOS significantly enhanced specific muscle forces of the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle of dystrophin-null mdx4cv mice (Li D et al J. Path. 223:88-...
Mice deficient in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were generated to test the idea that iNOS defends the host against infectious agents and tumor cells at the risk of contributing to tissue damage and shock. iNOS-/-mice failed to restrain the replication of Listeria monocytogenes in vivo or lymphoma cells in vitro. Bacterial endotoxic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) caused shock and death in ane...
Toxoplasma gondii: the role of IFN-gamma, TNFRp55 and iNOS in inflammatory changes during infection.
In order to examine the role of IFN-gamma, TNFRp55 and iNOS in inflammatory reaction during toxoplasmosis, IFN-gamma(-/-), TNFRp55(-/-) and iNOS(-/-) mice were experimentally infected with Toxoplasma gondii ME-49 strain. The organs of the mice were evaluated for histology and immunohistochemistry in detection of tissue parasitism and iNOS positive cells. IFN-gamma(-/-) mice presented mild infla...
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) was shown to be expressed in normal mucosa and adenoma of small and large intestines of Apc(Min/+) mice by reverse transcription-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Administration of the iNOS inhibitor aminoguanidine (1.5 g/liter) in drinking water or an L-arginine-deficient diet to Apc(Min/+) mice resulted in a significant decrease in adenoma development in the...
Intravitreal neovascular diseases are a major cause of blindness worldwide. It remains unclear why neovessels in many retinal diseases spread into the physiologically nonvascularized vitreous rather than into the ischemic retinal areas, where the angiogenic factors are released. Here we show that inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is expressed in the ischemic retina. Using iNOS knockout mic...
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is a potent mediator of oxidative stress during neuroinflammation triggered by neurotrauma or neurodegeneration. We previously demonstrated that acute iNOS inhibition attenuated iNOS levels and promoted neuroprotection and functional recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI). The present study investigated the effects of chronic iNOS ablation after SCI using...
Chronic inflammation has been postulated to play an important role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) has been implicated in many human diseases associated with inflammation. iNOS deficiency was shown to prevent high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance in skeletal muscle but not in the liver. A role for iNOS in fasting hyperglycemia and hepatic ins...
