Examples
-
Depletion of tissue thiols resulted in diminished vasorelaxation by nitroglycerin because nitric oxide could no longer be generated.
-
A separate project in the laboratory was to study endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation and to attempt to identify the mysterious "EDRF" (endothelium derived relaxing factor) discovered three years earlier by Robert Furchgott.
-
The investigators for the first time demonstrate a critical role of HSP-90 for nNOS-mediated vasorelaxation and furthermore, can provide evidence for this interaction being responsible in large parts for the well-accepted pronounced nNOS-dependent vasodilatation in portal hypertension.

Although HSP-90 has been shown to mediate in large parts the enhanced eNOS-dependent NO overproduction in the splanchnic circulation during portal hypertension, it is not clear what role HSP-90 plays in nNOS-mediated vasorelaxation in this scenario.

Data in the present study show that postnatal dexamethasone treatment diminished the contractile response to potassium, it increased the contractile responsiveness to α-adrenergic and local vasoconstrictors, and it depressed endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation.

Accordingly, it has been previously shown that both glucocorticoids and oxidative stress inhibit prostacyclin production Postnatal treatment of pups with antioxidant vitamins alone or in combination with dexamethasone decreased NO-dependent vasodilator mechanisms, it almost abolished the contribution of EDHF to vasorelaxation, and it decreased femoral dilator reactivity to SNP.
