Lactones 58-66 nitric oxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus 106-110 9786505-2 1998 We investigated whether andrographolide, a diterpenoid lactone found at Andrographis paniculata, influences the induction of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in RAW264.7 cells activated by bacterial endotoxin (LPS), as well as in the rats with endotoxic shock and in aortic rings treated with LPS. Lactones 55-62 nitric oxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus 162-166 22201994-7 2012 The NOS-2 was only present in endothelium-denuded aortic rings, as demonstrated by immunoblot with lactone treated rings. Lactones 99-106 nitric oxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus 4-9 22201994-9 2012 Both nitric oxide produced by NOS-2 and K+ channels are involved in the relaxant effect of the lactone. Lactones 95-102 nitric oxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus 30-35
