Background: The objective was to examine functional connectivity linked to the auditory system in patients with bothersome tinnitus. Activity was low frequency (< 0.1 Hz), spontaneous blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) responses at rest.

- - The study investigates how PGE(2) increases the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in cerebral microvessel endothelial cells, focusing on the mechanisms involved with specific emphasis on EP(3) receptors.
- - The researchers found that selective activation of EP(3) receptors enhances eNOS expression and nitric oxide-related responses, but these effects can be blocked by certain inhibitors, indicating a complex interaction of signaling pathways.
- - This research highlights a novel pathway where PGE(2) activates eNOS expression via perinuclear EP(3) receptors, involving calcium channels and protein kinases, suggesting that the nuclear and plasma membrane roles of EP(3) differ significantly.
