## Abstract The sympathetic preganglionic neurons (SPN) of the intermediolateral cell column (IML) play a critical role in the maintenance of vascular tone. We undertook a comparative neuroanatomical analysis of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) expression in the SPN of the mature normotensive

## Abstract Nitric oxide (NO) leads to neuronal death in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), including stroke. Here, we examined the NOβinduced vulnerability of neurons and lactate production by astrocytes in strokeβprone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) __in vitro__. Neuronal cell death induced by
Anti-tumor necrosis factor β£ (TNF-β£) treatment decreases nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and ameliorates the hyperdynamic circulation in portal hypertensive rats. We have recently demonstrated that nitric oxide synthase isoform 3 (NOS3) is overexpressed in portal hypertensive gastric mucosa and that res
Systemic and especially splanchnic arterial vasodilation accompany chronic portal hypertension. Different soluble mediators causing this vasodilation have been proposed, the strongest evidence being for nitric oxide (NO). No data exist if structural vascular changes may partly account for this vasod
## Abstract ## Purpose To examine whether the noninvasive technique of blood oxygenation level dependent magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD MRI) can detect changes in renal medullary oxygenation following administration of a nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, N^G^βnitroβLβarginine methyl ester (L
