We investigated the subcellular localization of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH-d) activity, a histo- and cyto-chemical marker of nitric oxide synthase, in human placental trophoblast obtained from women with normal term pregnancies. Tetrazolium salt BSPT was used as the

The activity of NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d), a marker for nitric oxide synthase (NOS), was examined histochemically in the rat and mice retina. Mice in which the neuronal NOS gene has been disrupted (nNOS- mice) were used for specificity controls. Light microscopically

The ultrastructural and histochemical exploration of histiocytes X done by the means of Concanavalin A (Con A), peanut agglutinin (PNA) and BSPT demonstrate that the plasma membrane of histiocytes X shared some properties with all the other cells and is

The 2-(2'-benzothiazolyl)-5-styryl-3-(4'-phthalhydrazidyl) tetrazolium chloride (BSPT)-tetrazolium salt technique for the electron microscopic demonstration of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) was used to localize nitric oxide synthase in the normal and excitotoxically lesioned rat hippocampus. The reaction product BSPT-formazan was shown
