The purpose of this study was to explore the anti-inflammatory mechanism walnut peptide LPF in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells model. down-regulated phagocytic ability and production nitric oxide (NO) induced by LPS-stimulated RAW264.7. Molecular docking analysis showed that can bind into active pocket inducible synthase (iNOS) with high affinity. Further, mRNA expression (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (C...

The established dogma regarding the different isoforms of nitric oxide has been that constitutively expressed nitric oxide synthase is an extremely important homeostatic regulator of numerous important physiological processes whereas the inducible form of nitric oxide synthase underlies injury associated with intestinal inflammation. In this brief overview, I review some of the literature that ...

indirect evidence suggests that estrogen is involved in the etiology of breast cancer. estrogen is also thought to modulate nitric oxide (no) in human breast tumor tissue via regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (inos). objectives of this study were to determine whether estradiol (e2) affects inos expression level in breast cancer cells and to study the effect of various concentrations...

In cystic fibrosis (CF), low concentrations of exhaled nitric oxide (NO) and reduced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in airway epithelium have been reported. However, abundant iNOS expression has been found in the subepithelial tissues and elevated concentrations of NO metabolites in breath condensate and sputum. These conflicting results may be explained by increased scave...

background: during the initial phase of an infection, there is an upregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase in the macrophages for the production of nitric oxide. this is followed by the recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) which release arginase. arginase competes with inducible nitric oxide synthase for a common substrate l-arginine. objective: to investigate whethe...

Background: Cyclosporine A (CsA) is an immunosuppressant with therapeutic indications in various immunological diseases; however, its use is associated with chronic nephropathy. Oxidative stress has a crucial role in CsA-induced nephrotoxicity. The present study evaluates the protective effect of edaravone on CsA-induced chronic nephropathy and investigates its antioxidant and nitric oxide modu...
