We determined the functional role of nitric oxide (NO) and endothelins (ET), two potent vasoactive mediator systems in the liver, for the pathogenesis of sinusoidal perfusion failure and lethal hepatocyte injury after low-flow ischemia/reperfusion in the isolated perfused rat liver.

## Abstract Nitric oxide (NO) plays a multifaceted role in mucosal integrity. The numerous functions of NO and the double‐edged role played by NO in most of them provide a great complexity to the NO action. The three enzymatic sources of NO, neuronal NO‐synthase (nNOS), endothelial NOS (eNOS), and
This study investigates the effects of inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis by NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis with indomethacin and the combined effects on gastric mucosal hyperemia of ketamine-anesthetized rats with portal hypertension induced b
