Whether nitric oxide is cytodestructive or cytoprotective is of obvious clinical importance. The debate on this subject in the past decade has generated much “heat and light”. This paper focuses on the actions of NO on the nervous system and reex

The pathologic hallmark of Parkinson's disease is the dopaminergic cell death in the substantia nigra (SN). The cause of the cell death is, however, unknown. Even the question on whether the cells die by apoptosis or necrosis has not been answered wi

Nitric oxide (NO) may subserve different functions in different central neurons subjected to axotomy. The difference may depend on whether the neurons basally express neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), a biosynthetic enzyme of NO. This is support

Sodium nitroprusside (SNP) has been used as a donor for nitric oxide (NO) to study the effects of NO on the mammalian cochlea. In the present study, we set out to determine whether NO was the chemical responsible for the ototoxic effects seen after t

The ultrastructure of the thymus in the chick (Gallus domesticus) was studied after unilateral vagotomy at survival times of 3, 7 and 10 days. Ultrastructural changes in the ipsilateral thymus were observed in axon boutons as well as in myoid and cys

This paper reviews the work related to nitric oxide (NO) done by the author and his postgraduates and colleagues in the past 7 years in the National University of Singapore. Our work shows that (i) NADPH-d and NO synthase (NOS) are often but not alwa

Parkinson's disease is characterized by dopaminergic cell death in the substantia nigra. The underlying mechanism is, however, unknown. Though there are increasing lines of evidence showing iron accumulation in the Parkinsonian substantia nigra, it s

In the present study, immunohistochemical stainings for OX-6, OX-42, nitric oxide synthase I and II as well as nitrotyrosine were used to investigate possible correlation among microglial reactivity, nitric oxide synthase upregulation, peroxynitrite

Nitric oxide (NO) not only has normal physiological roles like vasodilation and neurotransmission in the living organism, it could also have possible neurodestructive effects under certain pathological conditions. The present study aimed to determine
