1 Nitric oxide (NO) generated by vascular endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) plays a critical role in the NO/ cyclic guanosine 5"-monophosphate (cGMP)-mediated pulmonary vascular function. Cyclic GMP nitric oxide synthase 3 Homo sapiens
2 Here we examined whether internalization of a fifteen amino acid (KRFNSISCSSWRRKR) synthetic peptide (P3) enhances the catalytic activity of eNOS via caveolae/eNOS dissociation leading to NO release and increased cGMP production in pulmonary artery endothelial cells (EC). Cyclic GMP nitric oxide synthase 3 Homo sapiens
