Gender and transcriptional regulation of NO synthase and ET-1 in porcine aortic endothelial cells

Gender and transcriptional regulation of NO synthase and ET-1 in porcine aortic endothelial cells

Wang et al use aortic endothelial cells from pigs to determine whether normal fluctuations in sex steroid hormones alter gene transcription for endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and preproendothelin-1 (prepro-ET-1). Some of the results suggest that expression of endothelial NOS and prepro-ET-1...

Zusammenfassung:Wang et al use aortic endothelial cells from pigs to determine whether normal fluctuations in sex steroid hormones alter gene transcription for endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and preproendothelin-1 (prepro-ET-1). Some of the results suggest that expression of endothelial NOS and prepro-ET-1 may be regulated at transcriptional level by ovarian hormones.
