The regulation of cardiac activity by nitric oxide (NO) in the Vietnamese stick insect, Baculum extradentatum
Abstract
This study examines the role of the unconventional gaseous signaling molecule nitric oxide (NO) on the regulation of heart rate in the Vietnamese stick insect, Baculum extradentatum. Using nicotinamide dinucleotide hydrogen phosphate (NADPH)-diaphorase histochemistry, as well as immunohistochemistry and Western blotting with an antibody against NO synthetase (NOS), we identified the presence of NOS in hemocytes present throughout the lumen of …
