abstract：:The role of p53 in mediating nitric oxide (NO)-induced cell death remains uncertain. The exogenous NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) produced a concentration-dependent reduction in cell viability in embryonic chick cardiomyocytes in culture. Western blotting and immunocytochemistry for p53 showed that p53 was incre...
