Excitatory Amino Acids 285-307 nitric oxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus 202-206 11208916-10 2001 Taken together, these findings indicate that excitatory amino acids and subsequent activation of NF-kappaB account for stress-induced iNOS expression in cerebral cortex, and support a possible neuroprotective role for specific inhibitors in this situation. Excitatory Amino Acids 45-67 nitric oxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus 134-138 10800947-11 2000 To our knowledge, this is the first report showing an implication of excitatory amino acids in the expression of iNOS caused by ischemia. Excitatory Amino Acids 69-91 nitric oxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus 113-117
