Peroxynitrite, pumps and perivascular adipose tissue : studies across the physiological spectrum
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is a reactive nitrogen species produced when nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide (O2-) react. In vivo studies suggest that reactive oxygen species and perhaps peroxynitrite can influence Na,K-ATPase (Na ... -
Phenotypically different cells in the nucleus of the solitary tract : expression of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors and activation by baroreflexes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)Modulation and integration of visceral and central afferent information occurs in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS). The NTS is a heterogeneous nuclear region that contains afferent terminals, interneurons, and ...
