Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been increasingly recognized as an important signaling molecule that regulates both blood pressure and neuronal activity. Attention has been drawn to its interactions with another gasotransmitter, nitric oxide (NO). Here, we provide evidence that the physiological

Agonists of the nuclear hormone receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) have potent insulin-sensitizing effects and inhibit atherosclerosis progression in patients with Type II diabetes. Conversely, missense mutations in the ligand-binding domain of PPARγ that render the transcription factor dominant

Nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) are critically involved in regulation of ocular perfusion. However, the contribution of the individual NOS isoforms to vascular responses is unknown in the retina. Because some previous findings suggested an involvement of inducible nitric oxide synthase

Sodium nitroprusside (SNP) is a powerful vasodilatory agent that, similarly to glyceryl trinitrate (GTN), releases nitric oxide (NO) but in contrast does not pass the blood-brain barrier. Nevertheless, it has already been used in animal models without any knowledge of
