Complete Disruption of All Nitric Oxide Synthase Genes Causes Markedly Accelerated Renal Lesion Formation Following Unilateral Ureteral Obstruction in Mice In Vivo

Abstract.: The role of nitric oxide (NO) derived from all three NO synthases (NOSs) in renal lesion formation remains to be fully elucidated. We addressed this point in mice lacking all NOSs. Renal injury was induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). UUO caused significant renal lesion forma...
