Abstract excerpt
In this study, we examined the effects of oxidative stress on a nitric oxide (NO)-regulated neuroendocrine function, the release of arginine vasopressin (AVP) by the hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal axis. Treatment of mouse-isolated hypothalami and neurointermediate lobes (NIL) with H2O2 increased AVP release. This effect was inhibited by copper-zinc superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) analogs. By measuring cGMP...
