The chick skeletal muscle nitric oxide synthase (NOS) gene was cloned in order to further de®ne the involvement of NOS in the dierentiation of skeletal muscle cells. The respective cDNA had an open reading frame of 1136 amino acid residues, predicting a protein of 129,709.85 Da, and recognition site

Arterial levels of shear stress (25 dynes/cm 2 ) can elevate constitutive endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene expression in cultured endothelial cells (Ranjan et al., 1995). By PhosphorImaging of Northern blots, we report that the eNOS/glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) messe
The inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) promoter contains nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) binding sites. NF-kappaB activation is determined, in part, by the intracellular redox status. The aim of this study was to determine the importance of the cellular glutathione status in relation to NF-kap
## Abstract The inducible isoform of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS), expressed in endothelium, epithelium, and inflammatory cells, produces a large amount of NO. Previous studies on mouse intestine indicate that a muscular iNOS may have a role in the storage of intraluminal content. In this stud
Hyperglycaemia is a key factor that contributes to the development of diabetes-related microvascular disease. Both cyclooxygenase I and cyclooxygenase II are expressed in endothelial cells and play key roles in the regulation of cardiovascular function. In the current study we tested the hypothesis
