Histochemical and immunohistochemical localization of nitrergic structures in the carotid body of spontaneously hypertensive rats

•Glomus and sustentacular cells in the CB of SHRs are devoid of nNOS and eNOS immunoreactivity.•Glomus cells and blood vessels in the hypertensive CB exhibit moderate iNOS immunoreactivity.•In the hypertensive CB the protein expression of nNOS and eNOS is significantly down-regulated.•The levels of...
