L-NAME inhibits estrogen-stimulated NO release from granulocytes

CellsEstrogen agonist, 10−9 mol/L L-NAME, μmol/L NO level, nmol/L
Granulocytes  17β-estradiol —  18.1 + 2.3  
Granulocytes  17β-estradiol  100  1.9 + 0.8 
CellsEstrogen agonist, 10−9 mol/L L-NAME, μmol/L NO level, nmol/L
Granulocytes  17β-estradiol —  18.1 + 2.3  
Granulocytes  17β-estradiol  100  1.9 + 0.8 

The NO level is given as the mean plus or minus SEM. Each experiment was replicated 4 times. P < .01 in comparing NO release in the presence of L-NAME to that in the appropriate tissues without it.
