Human Recombinant Leptin Shows Dose and Time-Dependent Release of Nitric Oxide from Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase in Endothelium While on Angiogenesis
Abstract:Nitric Oxide (NO) modulates various assortments of the angiogenic process. The endogenous hormone leptin is able to induce different physiological process such as angiogenesis at low concentration because of its high receptor specific affinity. Various studies speculated leptin’s ability to induce endothelium‐dependent vascular relaxation by stimulating NO through different signaling pathways. So far, no studies have reported the dose and time dependent potential of human recombinant leptin on NO release. Henc… Show more
