Anti-NNOS antibody detects endogenous levels of total NNOS protein.
The NNOS (nitric oxide synthase 1) gene is mapped to human chromosome 12q24.22. Neuronal nitric oxide synthase is known to be expressed in skeletal muscles, the heart and the brain.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human nNOS.
Immunogen Range: 818-867
Application
Anti-NNOS antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemistry.[1]
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below. Immunohistochemistry (1 paper)
Biochem/physiol Actions
NNOS (nitric oxide synthase 1) is responsible for the synthesis of NO (nitric oxide) as well as superoxide. Stress induces the activity of NNOS and generation of NO and results in the formation of nitrogen radicals. Elevation of nitrogen radical leads to intracellular protein damage and also induces impairment to mitochondrial transport chain components. This generally results in cellular energy deficiency. NNOS is known to regulate vasodilation in the forearm, in response to stress. Neuronal nitric oxide synthase normally functions to control the basal coronary blood flow.

We previously demonstrated different spacial expression profiles of the neuronal nitric oxide (NO) synthase (nNOS) splice variants nNOS-µ and nNOS-α in the brain; however, their exact functions are not fully understood. Here, we used electron paramagnetic resonance to compare the
Stress is often marked by a state of hyperarousal to aid the initiation of necessary stress response for the successful management of stressful stimuli. It can be manifested as a challenge (stimulus) that requires behavioral, psychological, and physiological adaptations for

The development of multiple sclerosis, a major neurodegenerative disease, is due to both genetic and environmental factors that might trigger aberrant epigenetic changes of the genome. In this study, we analysed global DNA methylation in the brain of mice upon
