PDGF induces ID4 via NOS-NO signaling. A, nitrite (NO2−) levels in X02, X03, and GSC1T GICs 12 hours after PDGF (50 ng/mL) treatment. B, ID4 expression after treatment with GSNO (100 and 200 μmol/L) in GICs (X02, X03, and GSC1T). C and D, NOS inhibitor (LNAME; 200 μmol/L) and sGC inhibitor (ODQ; 1 μmol/L) markedly suppressed PDGF-mediated induction of ID4 mRNA (C) and protein (D) expression in GICs; **, P < 0.01 (n = 3); data, mean ± SD.
