Induction of nitric oxide synthase by cytokines in vascular smooth muscle cells

Open access
Busse, Rudi, Mülsch, Alexander·1990·FEBS Letters

Abstract

We investigated the mechanisms by which cytokines lead to a diminished responsiveness of vascular smooth muscle to vasoconstrictors. The attenuation of noradrenaline‐induced contraction by 6 to 24 h incubations with the cytokines, tumor necrosis factor and interleukin‐1, in endotheliumdenuded rabbi, aorta was associated with an increase in intracellular cyclic GMP level. This increase was abolished by the stereoselective inhibitor of nitric oxide‐synthase. N o‐nitro‐L‐arginine and by cycloheximide. Formation of nitric oxide was detected in the cytosol of cytokine‐treated native and cultured smooth muscle cells by activation of purified soluble guanylate cyclase, and depended on tetrahydrobiopterin, but not on ? ‐calmodulin. The results indicate that cytokines induce a nitric oxide‐synthase of the macrophage‐type in vascular smooth muscle.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
