Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity was measured in extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscles during postnatal development in the rat. At 1 and 2 weeks of age, similar low levels were found in both muscles. After 2 weeks, activity increased significantly only in EDL. Adult NOS activity was

## Abstract The inducible isoform of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS), expressed in endothelium, epithelium, and inflammatory cells, produces a large amount of NO. Previous studies on mouse intestine indicate that a muscular iNOS may have a role in the storage of intraluminal content. In this stud
We used the activity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH-d) to detect the presence of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the developing rat superior colliculus. Our results showed that NOS is present in cells and neuropil in the developing and adult rat superior colliculus.
