NO Synthase

Nitric oxide synthases; NOS

Nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) are a family of enzymes catalyzing the production of nitric oxide (NO) from L-arginine. NO synthases catalyze the oxidation of L-arginine to NO and L-citrulline. Mammals contain three NOS isoforms: neuronal NOS (nNOS), inducible NOS (iNOS), and endothelial NOS (eNOS). NO produced from these different NOS isoforms is involved in a wide range of physiologic functions in the nervous, immune, and cardiovascular systems. Unregulated NO production can lead to pathologic conditions such as stroke, inflammation, and hypertension. Therefore, the control of NOS activity by isoform selective NOS inhibitors has great potential for therapeutic treatments of NO-related diseases.

  • HY-B1197R
    Amcinonide (Standard)
    Inhibitor
    Amcinonide (Standard) is the analytical standard of Amcinonide. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Amcinonide is an inhibitor of NO release (IC50 = 3.38 nM). Amcinonide inhibits NNC-induced expression of the proinflammatory genes iNOS, TNF-α, and IL-1β in glial cells. Amcinonide reduces the numbers of T6+/Ia+ cells with a concomitant increase in T6+/Ia- cells. Amcinonide induces a selective reduction in expression of Ia antigens. Amcinonide can also be studied in research for eczematous dermatitis.

  • HY-18732
    L-NMMA
    Antagonist
    L-NMMA (Tilarginine; Methylarginine) competitively antagonizes L-arginine, and thus inhibits production of nitric oxide (NO). L-NMMA is utilized as NO synthase antagonist in experimental settings.

  • HY-U00187
    NCX1022
    Activator
    NCX1022 is an NO-releasing derivative of Hydrocortisone, which is the most widely used anti-inflammatory agent for the treatment of skin inflammation.

  • HY-P0316
    TP508
    Activator
    TP508 is a 23-amino acid nonproteolytic thrombin peptide that represents a portion of the receptor-binding domain of thrombin molecule. TP508 activates endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) and stimulates production of NO in human endothelial cells. TP508 activates endothelial cells and stem cells to revascularize and regenerate tissues.
