Pineal nitric oxide synthase, but not heme oxygenase, mRNA is suppressed by continuous exposure to light.

Pineal nitric oxide synthase, but not heme oxygenase, mRNA is suppressed by continuous exposure to light.

We have previously shown that exposure of rats to constant light (LL) induced a decrease in NO synthase (NOS) activity in the pineal gland. We report here that the use of the sensitive technique of RT-PCR has demonstrated that mRNA for neuronal NOS is present in the pineal, and that it is photoneura...
