Nitric oxide is not involved in Neisseria gonorrhoeae-induced cellular damage of human fallopian tubes in vitro

In the present study, we investigated whether cellular damage, as demonstrated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release in the human fallopian tube (FT) infected by Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ngo), correlated with high levels of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) mRNA and enzyme activity. Infection with Ngo indu...
