Our purpose was to investigate whether the local or systemic factors of pregnancy are associated with inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA expression and to determine the inhibitory effects of pharmacological agents that increase cGMP levels in rat myometrium. iNOS mRNA expression was determi...
