1 | Because endotoxin levels are elevated in cirrhosis, and endotoxin stimulates inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in several cell lines, aortas of carbon tetrachloride-induced cirrhotic rats with ascites were evaluated for iNOS expression. | Carbon Tetrachloride | nitric oxide synthase 2 | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | Moreover, aminoguanidine (AG), a preferential inhibitor of iNOS, did not affect phenylephrine contraction of rings with or without endothelium from cirrhotic rats but reversed the blunted response in endotoxin-treated rats. | pimagedine | nitric oxide synthase 2 | Rattus norvegicus |
