NO was first characterized in the CNS as the intercellular messenger mediating the increase
in cyclic GMP levels that follows activation of glutamate receptors (Garthwaite et al., 1988) …

Animals are biological transformers of dietary matter and energy to produce high-quality
foods and wools for human consumption and use. Mammals, birds, fish, and shrimp require …

Over the past 20 years, growing interest in the biochemistry, nutrition, and pharmacology of l-
arginine has led to extensive studies to explore its nutritional and therapeutic roles in …

Nitric oxide (NO) is produced by three distinct isoforms of nitric oxide synthases in the central
nervous system. Here, the roles of nitric oxide in the central nervous system are reviewed …

Aims: In humans, impaired gastric accommodation is associated with early satiety and
weight loss. In animals, accommodation involves activation of gastric nitrergic neurones. Our …

▪ Abstract Hypoxia elicits an array of compensatory responses in animals ranging from
protozoa to mammals. Central among these responses is anapyrexia, the regulated …

Abstract Type 1 diabetes (T1D)-induced osteoporosis is characterized by decreased bone
mineral density, bone quality, rate of bone healing, bone formation, and increased bone …

Nitric oxide (NO) is an unusual chemical messenger. NO mediates blood vessel relaxation
when produced by endothelial cells. When produced by macrophages, NO contributes to the …

Experimental evidence from molecular biology, biochemistry, epidemiology and behavioral
research support the conclusion that brain inflammation contributes to the pathogenesis of …
