RatBurnScaldWistar albinomaleIntraperitoneal10 mg/kgImmediately after burn
Model: Dorsal scald burn produced by exposure to 90 degrees C water for 10 s (sham 25 degrees C)
Burn increased nNOS expression in frontal cortex, striatum and midbrain; captopril reduced nNOS in frontal cortex and midbrain but increased striatal and hippocampal nNOS relative to control.
