Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic algorithm development for multi-objective optimization of batch free-radical polymerization reactors

TL;DR: An improved genetic algorithm approach, based on a new ranking strategy, has been proposed to conduct multi-objective optimization of chemical engineering problems, and proved to be robust, handling satisfactorily multi-modal and multidimensional problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melatonin inhibits LPS-induced NO production in rat endothelial cells

TL;DR: It is shown that concentrations compatible with nocturnal melatonin surge (nm) did not interfere with the activity of iNOS, and it is proposed that extra‐pineal melatonin could have a protective effect against tissue injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melatonin inhibits endothelial nitric oxide production in vitro.

TL;DR: It is shown that melatonin reduces NO production induced by bradykinin by a mechanism upstream to the interaction of Ca2+–calmodulin with NOS, which might be the basis of the diurnal variation in endothelial cell function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melatonin inhibits nitric oxide production by microvascular endothelial cells in vivo and in vitro.

TL;DR: This investigation extended the observation that melatonin inhibits bradykinin‐induced NO production by endothelial cells in vitro to an in vivo condition and explored the mechanism of action of melatonin.
