“…phospho‐nNOS (Ser‐1412) and phospho‐eNOS (Ser‐1177) densities were normalized relative to those of nNOS and eNOS, respectively, in partially purified samples. Dimeric and monomeric forms of nNOS and eNOS were measured by low temperature SDS electrophoresis, as described previously , using anti‐nNOS antibody (polyclonal rabbit, 1:1 000 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology) and anti‐eNOS antibody (monoclonal mouse, 1:500 dilution; Santa Cruz Biotechnology). For analysis of total nNOS (polyclonal rabbit antibody, 1:1 000 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology), total eNOS (monoclonal mouse antibody, 1:500 dilution; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), ROCKα (monoclonal mouse antibody, 1:1 000 dilution; BD Transduction Laboratories, San Jose, CA, USA), ROCKβ (monoclonal mouse antibody, 1:1 000 dilution; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), phospho‐myosin phosphatase target subunit 1 (MYPT1; Thr‐696; polyclonal rabbit antibody, 1:1 000 dilution; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), PDE5 (monoclonal mouse antibody, 1:450 dilution; BD Transduction Laboratories), 4‐hydroxy‐2‐nonenal (4‐HNE; polyclonal rabbit antibody, 1:2 000 dilution; Alpha Diagnostic International, San Antonio, TX, USA), phospho‐Akt (Ser‐473; polyclonal rabbit antibody, 1:1 000 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology), and Akt (polyclonal rabbit antibody, 1:1 000 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology), a separate set of homogenates (70–100 μg) was used without purification, and standardized to glyceraldehyde 3‐phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH; monoclonal mouse antibody, 1:1 000 dilution; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) .…”
