NO Key Role in Cat Locomotion Control

Diverse roles in cellular functions have been ascribed to nitric oxide (NO), and its involvement in induction of long-term depression in cerebellar Purkinje cells has been demonstrated. Manipulations of NO concentration or its synthesis in cerebellar tissues therefore...

Role of NO in Animal Reproduction

Nitric oxide has emerged as an important regulator of reproductive bio-physiological system and plays a crucial role in reproduction. NO is synthesized from L-arginine by enzyme nitric oxide synthase, which exists in multiple iso forms in a wide range of mammalian...

NO reduces pregnant patients with COVID-19

High dose inhaled nitric oxide gas (iNO) is a safe and effective respiratory therapy for pregnant women hospitalized with severe COVID-19 pneumonia, resulting in a more rapid weaning from supplemental oxygen and reduced length of hospital stay, according to a research...

Vascular Aging in Women

Aging is associated with structural and functional changes in the vasculature, including endothelial dysfunction, arterial stiffening and remodeling, impaired angiogenesis, and defective vascular repair, and with increased prevalence of atherosclerosis. Cardiovascular...

NO Combined Effects on Obese Women

Obesity is a complex inflammatory disease that results from multiple environmental, biological, and behavioral factors. Characteristics of the disease often parallel with the development of metabolic syndrome, a condition that predicts cardiovascular disease risk. An...

NO Concentrations in Women with Candidiasis

Candida albicans is a dimorphic yeast that inhabits the vagina as a nonpathogenic commensal microorganism in up to 30% of women of reproductive age. Colonization with C. albicans can occur during passage of the newborn infant through the birth canal. Therefore, the...

Moderate Exercise Increases NO in Women

Vascular endothelial cells produce nitric oxide (NO), which is a potent vasodilator substance and is thought to have antiatherosclerotic properties. Therefore, it has also been proposed that NO may be useful to regulate vascular tonus and prevent progression of...

NO Influence on Muscle Power

Objective: To evaluate whether nitric oxide (NO) supplementa- tion is directly related to increased muscle power in response to strength exercise training. Methods: The study included 36 individuals who underwent training for eight weeks (three times per week) with...
