Effects of repeated treatment (5 times) with L-NAME, a NO synthase (eNOS) inhibitor on DNA synthesis in various zones of the heart in newborn albino rats was studied using 3H-thymidine autoradiography. This compound decreased (by 1.22-1.59 times) the count of labeled cardiomyocyte nuclei in various myocardial zones, particularly, in the myocardium of the left atrium, left ventricle, and interventricular septum. Changes in tissue proliferative activity were accompanied by activation of lipid peroxidation and inhibition of the antioxidant system in the myocardium.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009206 Myocardium The muscle tissue of the HEART. It is composed of striated, involuntary muscle cells (MYOCYTES, CARDIAC) connected to form the contractile pump to generate blood flow. Muscle, Cardiac,Muscle, Heart,Cardiac Muscle,Myocardia,Cardiac Muscles,Heart Muscle,Heart Muscles,Muscles, Cardiac,Muscles, Heart
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004791 Enzyme Inhibitors Compounds or agents that combine with an enzyme in such a manner as to prevent the normal substrate-enzyme combination and the catalytic reaction. Enzyme Inhibitor,Inhibitor, Enzyme,Inhibitors, Enzyme
