Journal ArticleDOI

Biochemical and immunohistochemical characterization of nitric oxide synthase in the rat retina.

TL;DR: Protein immunoblot and immunohistochemical analysis using a specific antibody against Type I NOS indicated that the same type of NOS is mainly localized in amacrine cells in the retina, which indicates that rat retina contains more than one type ofNOS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nutrition and cardiovascular disease: Putting a pathogenic framework into focus

TL;DR: Investigating the various dietary profiles and pathogenic mechanisms that have emerged in the literature and the major studies that investigated their effectiveness in modifying cardiovascular risk finds that long-term adherence can become a problem with some dietary advice that uses severe restriction of certain food groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocyte and endothelial effects of preconditioning the jeopardized heart by inhibiting Na+/H+ exchange

TL;DR: Adjunctive pretreatment with cariporide delays myocardial and endothelial injury during ischemia and reperfusion, limits oxygen-derived radical injury, restores function, reduces edema, and preserves endothelin and nitric oxide balance at normal values.
