Anti-INOS antibody detects endogenous levels of total INOS protein.
The INOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) gene is mapped to human chromosome 17q11.2.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human iNOS.
Immunogen Range: 117-166
Application
Anti-INOS, N-Terminal antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting and immunohistochemistry.[1][2]
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below. Immunohistochemistry (1 paper)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Upregulation of INOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) is observed during infections, tissue injury, and inflammation. INOS is responsible to produce NO (nitric oxide), which controls blood flow by inducing vascular relaxation. NO acts as a neurotransmitter and can facilitate immune responses. NO can also bring about anti-thrombotic and anti-inflammatory effects in response to oxidative stress, hypoxia, inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IFN-γ), and lipopolysaccharide endotoxin. iNOS generates more NO than the neuronal and endothelial NOS. Unlike the two isoforms, iNOS is calcium independent. INOS might be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Migraine is a debilitating disorder affecting approximately 12% of Caucasian populations. The disease has a large genetic component, although at present the type and number of genes involved is unclear. Candidate gene studies may be useful strategies for identifying genes
Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous free radical molecule involved in several biological processes related to inflammation, tissue damage, and infections. Based on reports that NO inhibits migration of granulocytes and monocytes, we became interested in the role of inducible

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) has been regarded as deactivator for macrophages. However, the depressive effect of VIP on tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) has not been recognized. In the present study, we investigated the effect of VIP on gastric cancer via TAM
Salmonella infection entails a cascade of attacks and defence measures. After breaching the intestinal epithelial barrier, Salmonella is phagocytosed by macrophages, where the bacteria encounter multiple stresses, to which it employs relevant countermeasures. Our study shows that, in Salmonella, the
