Newest firstBackground Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe multifactorial disease associated with impaired pulmonary hemodynamics, leading to right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy and failure. Induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and/or activation of cannabinoid CB1 receptor (CB1R) is associated with pro-inflammatory, pro-fibrotic, and pro-hypertrophic effects. Therefore, we tested the effects of chr…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Long-term exposure to stress has been demonstrated to cause neuroinflammation through a sustained overproduction of free radicals, including nitric oxide, via an increased inducible nitric oxide synthase activity. We previously demonstrated that inducible nitric oxide synthase activity and mRNA are significantly upregulated in the rat hippocampus following just 4 hours of restraint stress. Similar to ni…
