Abstract

The role of the inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase (Nos2 or iNOS) in intestinal tumorigenesis is unclear. Conflicting data also exist regarding the ability of Nos2 to modulate expression and/or activity of cyclooxygenase 2 (Cox-2), which promotes intestinal tumorigenesis. Therefore, we determined the effect of a null Nos2 genotype on intestinal tumorigenesis and Cox-2 expression/activity in the Apc(Min/+) mouse model of familial adenomatous polyposis.
