BACKGROUND: Polymorphisms of genes involved in the regulation of the immune response are risk factors for achalasia, but their contribution to disease pathogenesis is unknown. Nitric oxide is involved both in immune function and inhibitory neurotransmission.OBJECTIVE: The objective of...

Isolation and in vitro culture of vascular endothelial cells from mice.

The Korean journal of physiology & pharmacology : official journal of the Korean Physiological Society and the Korean Society of Pharmacology

Choi S, Kim JA, Kim KC, Suh SH.

In cardiovascular disorders, understanding of endothelial cell (EC) function is essential to elucidate the disease mechanism. Although the mouse model has many advantages for in vivo and in vitro research, efficient procedures for the isolation and propagation of primary...

Heterozygous eNOS deficiency is associated with oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction in diet-induced obesity.

Physiological reports

Ali MI, Chen X, Didion SP.
PMID: 26660551
Physiol Rep. 2015 Dec;3(12). doi: 10.14814/phy2.12630.

Heterozygous endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) deficiency is associated with normal endothelium-dependent responses, however, little is known regarding the mechanisms that maintain or impair endothelial function with heterozygous eNOS deficiency. The goals of this study were to (1) determine...

Inhibition of neuronal nitric oxide synthase improves microregional O.
