## Abstract Mechanical loading alters the metabolism of articular cartilage, possibly due to effects of shear stress on chondrocytes. In cultured chondrocytes, glycosaminoglycan synthesis increases in response to fluidinduced shear. This study tested the hypothesis that shear stress increases nitri
Previous studies have shown that hypoxia results in increased Ca 2ϩ influx in neuronal nuclei and generation of nitric oxide (NO) free radicals in the cerebral cortical tissue of newborn piglets. The present study tests the hypothesis that hypoxia results in modification of the inositol triphosphate
