Astrocytes produce numerous mediators under conditions of inflammation in the central nervous system. One such mediator is nitric oxide (NO) derived from nitric oxide synthase-2 (NOS-2), the high output, inducible NOS isoform. Expression of NOS-2 and production of NO can be stimulated in astrocyte cultures by combinations of cytokines and lipopolysaccharide, a gram-negative bacterial endotoxin. This chapter details methods to induce and analyze NOS-2 expression and NO production in astrocyte cultures.
