Although a multisystem disease, systemic sclerosis (SSc) most commonly affects the skin. The skin lesion is characterized by progressive changes, chief amongst which are vascular abnormalities, including endothelial cell (EC) injury and death, and dermal fibrosis. The pathogenesis of the vascular ch

Background. Nitric oxide (NOΠΈ) has been implicated in the process of carcinogenesis in various organs. This study was designed to investigate the expression of endothelial constitutive nitric oxide synthase (ecNOS) in normal and neoplastic salivary tissues. Methods. Paraffin-embedded tissue from 48
## Background: Endothelin (et) is an endothelium-derived multifunctional peptide that produces a potent, long-lasting vasoconstriction. nitric oxide (no), besides being the most important endothelium-derived relaxant factor in blood vessels, is supposed to be involved in regulating the interactions
The pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) remains poorly understood. Vasoconstriction, although likely to be a major factor in the disease, varies between patients and studies of a variety of vasoactive substances have sometimes yielded conflicting results. Amongst these substances, alteration
