Inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS, NOS2) plays a prominent role in macrophage bactericidal and tumoricidal activities. A relatively large amount of NO produced via iNOS, however, also targets the macrophage itself for apoptotic cell death. To uncover the intrinsic mechanisms of iNOS regulation, we have characterized the SPRY domain- and SOCS box-containing protein 1 (SPSB1), SPSB2, and SPSB...
The aim of this study was to demonstrate iNOS mRNA expression in muscular phase of experimental trichinellosis and to localize iNOS protein in T. spiralis-infected muscles using specific anti-iNOS monoclonal antibodies. The expression of iNOS mRNA in skeletal muscles from Trichinella spiralis-infected mice was examined using the reverse transcription PCR assay. Fragments of skeletal muscles wer...
In retinal organ cultures, H2O2 can be used to simulate oxidative stress, which plays a role in the development of several diseases including glaucoma. We investigated whether processes underlying stress prevented cultures by an inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)-inhibitor. To this end, porcine explants were cultivated for four and eight days. Oxidative was induced via 300 µM on day one thr...
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) contributes importantly to septic pulmonary protein leak in mice with septic acute lung injury (ALI). However, the role of alveolar macrophage (AM) iNOS in septic ALI is not known. Thus we assessed the specific effects of AM iNOS in murine septic ALI through selective AM depletion (via intratracheal instillation of clodronate liposomes) and subsequent AM r...
ischemia reperfusion injury (ir injury) is a common problem in clinical conditions. researches have frequently revealed that atp- sensitive potassium (katp) channels and nitric oxide plays a role in protection against ischemic injury in skeletal muscle. the present study aimed at evaluating the possible link between this two pathways. sixty-eight male wistar rats, were pretreated with saline, d...
Activated mouse peritoneal macrophages produce nitric oxide (NO) via a nitric oxide synthase that is inducible by interferon gamma (IFN-gamma): iNOS. We have studied the mechanisms by which transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta) suppresses IFN-gamma-stimulated NO production. TGF-beta treatment reduced iNOS specific activity and iNOS protein in both cytosolic and particulate fractions as a...
Overproduction of nitric oxide (NO) by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many disorders. iNOS is notably distinguished from constitutive NOSs by its production of large amounts of NO for a prolonged period; hence, it was termed the high-output NOS. Understanding how cells regulate iNOS is a prerequisite for strategies aimed at modulating NO synthe...
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) participates in many pathological events, and selective inhibition of iNOS has been shown to reduce ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in different tissues. To further confirm its role in this injury process, I/R injury was observed in denervated cremaster muscles of iNOS-deficient (iNOS-/-) and wild-type mice. After 3-h ischemia and 90-min reperfusion, blo...
OBJECTIVE Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is expressed in arteries during inflammation and may contribute to vascular dysfunction. Effects of gene transfer of iNOS to carotid arteries were examined in vitro in the absence of systemic inflammation to allow examination of mechanisms by which iNOS impairs contraction and relaxation. METHODS AND RESULTS After gene transfer of iNOS with an ...
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), an enzyme that produces toxic amounts of nitric oxide, is expressed in a number of brain pathologies, including cerebral ischemia. We used mice with a null mutation of the iNOS gene to study the role of iNOS in ischemic brain damage. Focal cerebral ischemia was produced by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). In wild-type mice, iNOS mRNA express...
