    Abstract:
    A polyclonal antibody was raised in the rabbit against an inducible form of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (EC 1.14.23) purified from the liver of rats with acute liver necrosis induced by i.v. administration of Propionibacterium acnes and lipopolysaccharide. The antibody immunoprecipitated NO synthase activities in the soluble extract of the liver from treated rats. Western blot analysis showed that the cytosols of the liver, lung and spleen from the treated rats but not from non-treated rats, and that of murine macrophages cultured in the presence of lipopolysaccharide and interferon-gamma, contained immunoreactive protein with a molecular weight of 125 kDa. The antibody, however, does not cross-react with a 150 kDa constitutive form of NO synthase present in the brain of rats, indicating that the inducible and constitutive enzymes are immunologically distinguishable.
