“…Inhibition of nNOS diminishes anxiety-like responses to pair housing [57]. Also, anxiety-like behaviours in aged mice are recovered by modifying nNOS expression levels in the hippocampus or cerebellum [58].…”

“…A very recent study has suggested a relationship between affective behaviors and nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) expression in aged mice [ 146 ]. nNOS is rich in the limbic system [ 147 ], an area involved in affective behaviors.…”

“…Tomiga et al . (2016) [ 146 ] have found that EE reduced anxiety-like behaviors in aged mice and reduced nNOS expression levels in the cerebellum, but not in the cortex. However, as the authors mention, further studies are needed to determine the mechanisms that may mediate this process.…”

“…No entanto, microinjeção de inibidores da nNOS ou de um doador de óxido nítrico, em regiões encefálicas relacionadas às reações de defesa, induz respectivamente, comportamento do tipo ansiolítico e a reação de fuga, que suportam a participação do óxido nítrico no comportamento do tipo ansioso (para revisão, ver Guimaraes et al, 2005). Dentre os trabalhos encontrados envolvendo enriquecimento ambiental e nNOS, (TOMIGA et al, 2016) revelaram melhora do comportamento ansioso em camundongos idosos induzido pelo enriquecimento ambiental e redução da expressão de nNOS no hipocampo (embora não significante) e cerebelo, reforçando a ideia da participação da nNOS na regulação do comportamento do tipo ansioso e do enriquecimento ambiental como ferramenta terapêutica na prevenção da ansiedade pela atuação da via nNOS/NO.…”
