“TS enhanced the amount of protein kinase Cα (PKCα) in VSMC, and PKC inhibitors inhibited TS-enhanced NO production, suggesting that the enhancing effect of TS on NO production is caused by up-regulation of PKC.”
“The enhancement by TS of NO production was inhibited by α-T but not by antioxidants such as ascorbic acid and 2[3]-t-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA).”
