Production of Nitric Oxide and Erythropoietin in Serum of Newborn
신생아의 혈청내 Nitric Oxide와 Erythropoietin의 생성
Abstract
Nitric oxide(NO) is a potent and selective pulmonary artery vasodilator. Erythropoietin(EPO) is produced in the kidney in response to reduced oxygen availability. In this study, blood samples were collected for determination of NO and EPO concentrations in 18 normal newborns and 16 newborns with respiratory distress syndrome(RDS). Serum was measured by Ding's method for NO concentration and by enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay for EPO concentration. Nitric ion concentration in serum was 14.9
본 연구는 정상 및 호흡곤란 신생아의 혈청내에 존재하는 nitric oxide(NO)의 생성을 관찰하고 erythropoietin (EPO)의 생성을 보기 위하여 정상 신생아 18명과 호흡곤란 신생아 16명으로부터 혈액을 채취하여 혈청내에서의 NO 및 EPO 생성량을 enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay법으로 측정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 정상신생아의 혈청내 nitrite ion은 14.9
