Upregulation of nitric oxide synthase in mice with severe hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The importance of nitric oxide (NO) in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension has been demonstrated using nitric oxide synthase (NOS) knockout mice. In that model NO from endothelial NOS (eNOS) plays a central role in modulating pulmonary va...
