Enhanced neuronal nitric oxide synthase expression is central to cardiac vagal phenotype in exercise-trained mice.
We investigated whether enhanced cardiac vagal responsiveness elicited by exercise training is dependent on neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS-1), since the NO-cGMP pathway facilitates acetylcholine release. Isolated atria with intact right vagal innervation were taken from male mice (18-22 weeks o...
