However, current knowledge on this topic is limited to experimental animal studies. The present study was undertaken on the basis of a hypothesis whether altered nitrite\/nitrate levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and endothelial NOS (eNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS) immunoreactivity in gingiva of CsA\u2010treated patients contribute to the pathogenesis of CsA\u2010induced GO.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold> Twenty\u2010four CsA\u2010medicated renal transplant patients with GO (GO+; n = 12) or without GO (GO\u2212; n = 12), 10 gingivitis, and 10 healthy subjects were included in the study. GCF samples from two proximal sites facing interdental papilla were collected, and papilla was excised. iNOS and eNOS were determined by immunohistochemistry. GCF nitrite\/nitrate levels were analyzed based on the Griess reaction.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> Weak iNOS immunostaining was observed in the healthy and GO\u2212 groups. In the gingivitis and GO+ groups, iNOS immunostaining significantly increased in connective tissue. Epithelial immunostaining of iNOS was localized to basal keratinocytes and the lower layer of stratum (str.) spinosum in the gingivitis group. In the GO+ group, iNOS immunostaining was differentially localized to keratinocytes of str. superficiale but considerably decreased in the str. basale. Weak eNOS immunostaining was found in the healthy and GO\u2212 groups, whereas higher immunostaining was observed in the gingivitis and GO+ groups. No intergroup differences were observed regarding nitrite\/nitrate levels in GCF.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> CsA differentially upregulated iNOS, but not eNOS, in overgrown
