Abstrakt: Presents a study that found that low-volume anoxia and reoxygenation increased nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity and facilitated the conversion of L-arginine to nitric oxide (NO) to protect against heart cell injury. Measurement of NO production; Characterization of NOS isoforms in human heart cells after low-volume anoxia and reoxygenation; Effects of L-arginine on cellular injury and NO production after low-volume anoxia and reoxygenation.
