The use of inhaled nitric oxide to treat persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn in a tertiary public hospital in South Africa from 2010-2014: morbidity, mortality and cost
… Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is recommended for the treatment of severe persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) because it reduces the need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). There is insufficient evidence that iNO reduces mortality in the absence of ECMO. Although …

The role of Zinc and Reactive Oxygen Species in the Regulation of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase
Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) is a very serious disease affecting nearly 5 in 1000 newborns each year. The development of PPHN has been linked to a decrease in the activity and expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). Thus, it is critical to understand the …

The Role of Mitochondria in Oxygen Sensing of the Ductus Arteriosus and Fetal Pulmonary Arteries
Rationale: Mitochondria underlie the oxygen responses of the ductus arteriosus (DA), adult pulmonary arteries (PA) and other oxygen sensing tissues. However, the fetal PA oxygen response has been little studied, the identity of the DA oxygen sensor remains elusive, and the basis for the opposing …
