Following the discovery of the vasorelaxant properties of nitric oxide (NO) by Furchgott and
Ignarro, the finding by Bredt and coll. of a constitutively expressed NO synthase in neurons …

Tissue nitric oxide (NO) levels increase dramatically during ischemia, an effect that has been
shown to be partially independent from NO synthases. Because NO is stored in tissues as S …

The present work addresses the simultaneous monitoring of hemoglobin and glucose
consumption in rat somatosensory cortex in vivo. We propose a method which combines two …

Understanding the link between neuronal responses and metabolic signals is fundamental
to our knowledge of brain function and it is a milestone in our efforts to interpret data from …

Purpose Acute ischemic stroke induces deoxyhemoglobin accumulation around the
ischemic region while activating endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) coupling and the …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a versatile molecule involved in a wide range of biological processes.
Under physiological conditions, NO reacts with oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb) to form …

The transition from sleep to the awake state is regulated by the activation of subcortical
nuclei of the brainstem (BS) and basal forebrain (BF), releasing acetylcholine and glutamate …

There have been great advances in optical brain imaging over the last 50 years and the
technique has grown into a richly diverse field. In vivo recording and imaging using light …

Mammals erythrocytes membranes (EM) cytochrome (cyt) b558III posseses ferrihemoglobin
(ferriHb)-reducing activity to ferrohemoglobin (ferroHb) in homogeneous and heterogeneous …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a versatile molecule involved in important biological processes1. Under
physiological conditions, NO reacts with ferrous heme proteins such as hemoglobin to form …
