Gene context of S-Methyl-L-thiocitrulline

  • Inhibition of nNOS with 10 micro mol/L S-methyl-L-thiocitrulline significantly decreased the afferent arteriolar diameter of AT1A receptor-deficient mice, from 15.1+/-1.2 to 5.0+/-0.3 micro m (n=7), and the decrease was significantly greater than that observed in wild-type mice (from 15.9+/-1.2 to 10.6+/-1.3 micro m; n=8) [13].
  • For this purpose rat pancreatic islets were cultured for 48 h in medium supplemented without or with 10, 100 or 500 microM of S-methyl-L-thiocitrulline, in the absence or presence of 25 U/ml of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) [4].
  • The first aim of the present study was to examine nNOS mRNA expression in the renal cortex and to assess the renal functional responses to intrarenal nNOS inhibition by S-methyl-L-thiocitrulline (L-SMTC) in heterozygous TGR and in age-matched transgene-negative Hannover Sprague-Dawley rats (HanSD) [14].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of S-Methyl-L-thiocitrulline

  • Perfusion of 10(-3) mol/L S-methyl-L-thiocitrulline (SMTC) with 150 mmol/L NaCl, induces a significant drop in DT [NO], but without a significant increase in collected NO [15].
  • We examined the effects of potent neuronal nitric oxide synthase inhibitors, 3-bromo-7-nitro indazole (3-Br-7-NI) and S-methyl-L-thiocitrulline (S-Me-TC) on general behaviour, vigilance stages and electroencephalographic (EEG) power spectra in rats [9].
