In liver cirrhosis, down-regulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) has been implicated as a cause of increased intrahepatic resistance. We investigated whether Rho-kinase activation is one of the molecular mechanisms involved in defective eNOS signaling in secondary biliary cirrhosis. L
## Abstract Phenolic extracts from red wine (RWPs) have been shown to induce nitric oxide (NO)‐mediated vasoprotective effects, mainly by causing the PI3‐kinase/Akt‐dependent activation of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS). RWPs contain several hundreds of phenolic compounds. The aim of the present st
