Abstract excerpt
Nitric oxide synthases are a family of enzymes capable of converting L-arginine to L-citrulline with the subsequent release of nitric oxide (NO). NO has been shown to have multiple biologic effects depending on the isoform responsible for its production and its tissue of origin. Murine endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is encoded by Nos3, located on mouse chromosome 5. NO produced from this isoform causes...
