Previous studies have shown that primary murine macrophages infected with Mycobacterium avium produced lower levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) and inducible nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) compared to cells infected with nonpathogenic Mycobacterium smegmatis. TNFand NOS2 levels correlated with and were dependent on the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) p38 and ext...
Recent evidence has shown that the inducible form of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS2) has reduced expression in airway epithelia of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) despite the presence of chronic inflammation. The goal of this paper is to determine whether NOS2 expression is regulated by the presence of functional CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Using a human trachea epitheli...
The purpose of the study was to investigate interactions between myocardial nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and myocardial fibrosis, both of which determine left ventricular (LV) preload reserve in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). In previous animal experiments, chronic inhibition of NOS induced myocardial fibrosis and limited LV preload reserve. Twenty-eight DCM patients und...
Nitric oxide (NO) is a proposed component of malaria pathogenesis, and the inducible nitric oxide synthase gene (NOS2) has been associated to malaria susceptibility. We analyzed the role of NOS2 polymorphisms on NO bioavailability and on susceptibility to infection, Plasmodium carrier status and clinical malaria. Two distinct West African sample collections were studied: a population-based coll...
Background Neuropathic pain is a clinical manifestation characterized by the presence of spontaneous pain, hyperalgesia and allodynia. Several works have demonstrated that selective NOS2 inhibitors might reverse the hypersensitivity to pain induced by neuropathy [1,2]. Although these studies suggest a potential role of NOS2 in the modulation of neuropathic pain, the exact involvement of NOS2 in...
Biochemical and pharmacological studies have suggested that NOS2 (inducible nitric oxide synthase) has a functional role in the blood pressure response to increases in dietary salt intake. On a high-salt diet, the Dahl/Rapp salt-sensitive (S) strain of rat, a genetic model of salt-sensitive hypertension, did not show increased nitric oxide production. NOS2 from S rats possesses a point mutation...
Previous studies indicate that the inducible nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) of the brain vascular tissue in experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) rats is a critical factor for inducing cerebral vasospasm. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we applied ferrous citrate (FC) complexes to the primary cultured mouse cerebral endothelial cell (CEC) to mimi...
Rodents immunized with complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) are resistant to subsequent attempts to induce autoimmune disease, while animals immunized with incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) remain susceptible. Mycobacterial extracts can stimulate inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2) gene transcription. Robust expression of NOS2 has been linked to suppression of T cell proliferation and alteratio...
Proinflammatory signaling pathways are commonly up-regulated in breast cancer. In estrogen receptor-negative (ER-) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), nitric oxide synthase-2 (NOS2) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) have been described as independent predictors of disease outcome. We further explore these findings by investigating the impact of their coexpression on breast cancer survival. Elev...
Nitric oxide (NO) generated by inducible NO synthase 2 (NOS2) affects cellular iron homeostasis, but the underlying molecular mechanisms and implications for NOS2-dependent pathogen control are incompletely understood. In this study, we found that NO up-regulated the expression of ferroportin-1 (Fpn1), the major cellular iron exporter, in mouse and human cells. Nos2(-/-) macrophages displayed i...
