1. The nature and cellular mechanisms that are responsible for endothelium-dependent relaxations resistant to indomethacin and NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) were investigated in phenylephrine (PE) precontracted isolated carotid arteries from the rabbit. 2. In the presence of the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor

Protein fatty-acylation is the covalent addition of a lipid chain at specific amino acids. This modification changes the inherent hydrophobicity of a protein, often targeting it to cellular membrane compartments. Acylation may also regulate protein activity, stability, and protein-protein interactions.

The endothelium plays an important role in maintaining vascular homeostasis by synthesizing and releasing several mediators of vasodilation, which include prostacyclin (PGI(2)), nitric oxide, and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF). We have recently defined the role of nitric oxide and PGI(2)
