Theoretical analysis of biochemical pathways of nitric oxide release from vascular endothelial cellsKejing Chen
Department of Biomedical Engineering, School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University, 720 Rutland Avenue, 613 Traylor Building, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Free Radic Biol Med 41:668-80. 2006..The results indicated that the predicted low level of NO production can be attributed primarily to a low expression of eNOS in the microvascular endothelial cells...
Vascular and perivascular nitric oxide release and transport: biochemical pathways of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS1) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3)Kejing Chen
Department of Biomedical Engineering, 613 Traylor Building, 720 Rutland Avenue, School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Free Radic Biol Med 42:811-22. 2007....
Vascular smooth muscle NO exposure from intraerythrocytic SNOHb: a mathematical modelKejing Chen
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA
Antioxid Redox Signal 9:1097-110. 2007..In conclusion, our mathematical model predicts that picomolar amounts of NO can be delivered to the vascular smooth muscle by intraerythrocytic SNOHb; this amount of NO alone appears not sufficient to induce the hypoxic vasodilation...
Nitric oxide from nitrite reduction by hemoglobin in the plasma and erythrocytesKejing Chen
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, 613 Traylor Building, 720 Rutland Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Nitric Oxide 18:47-60. 2008..mM in erythrocyte); (3) intraerythrocytic hemoglobin encapsulated by a NO-resistant membrane is the major source of NO from nitrite reduction, and cell-free hemoglobin is a significant scavenger of both paracrine and endocrine NO...
Nitric oxide in the vasculature: where does it come from and where does it go? A quantitative perspectiveKejing Chen
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA
Antioxid Redox Signal 10:1185-98. 2008..Resolving these issues is highly relevant to improving our understanding of vascular biology and to developing pharmaceutical agents that target NO pathways, such as vasodilating drugs...
Hemorrhagic shock and nitric oxide release from erythrocytic nitric oxide synthase: a quantitative analysisKejing Chen
Department of Biomedical Engineering, School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University, 613 Traylor Building, 720 Rutland Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Microvasc Res 78:107-18. 2009..This study provides a basis for detailed studies to characterize the impairment of NO release pathways during hemorrhage and yield important insights for the development of resuscitation methods...
Nitric oxide production pathways in erythrocytes and plasmaKejing Chen
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA
Biorheology 46:107-19. 2009..Here we review the hypotheses that have been put forward concerning blood-borne NO and its contribution to hemorheological properties and the regulation of vascular tone, with an emphasis on the quantitative aspects of these processes...
Effects of iron nitrosylation on sickle cell hemoglobin solubilityXiuli Xu
Department of Physics, Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, North Carolina 27109, USA
J Biol Chem 277:36787-92. 2002..Given the small amounts of NO-ligated hemoglobin achievable through any kind of NO therapy, we conclude that NO therapy does not benefit patients through any direct solubilizing effect...
