There is increasing evidence that nitric oxide (NO) is an important molecular messenger
involved in a wide variety of biological processes. Recent data suggest that NO is also …

Nitric oxide (NO) is undoubtedly quite an important intercellular messenger in cerebral and
peripheral hemodynamics. This molecule, formed by constitutive isomers of NO synthase …

The original observation that inhibitors of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis can antagonize
glutamate toxicity in cell culture has led to extensive investigation of the role of NO in the …

There has been a rapid increase in the amount of information on the physiological and
pathophysiological roles of nitric oxide (NO) in the brain. This molecule, which is formed by …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a potent vasodilator that was initially described as the mediator of
endothelium-dependent relaxation (endothelium-derived relaxing factor, EDRF). It is now …

Nitrogen monoxide (NO) has recently emerged as an important mediator of cellular and
molecular events which impacts the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia. Although …

Nitric oxide, a potent vasodilator and an inhibitor of platelet aggregation, may be beneficial
in the early stages of focal cerebral ischemia as it may facilitate collateral blood flow to the …

Nitric oxide (NO) has only recently been appreciated as a normal biologic substance with a
role in signal transduction. It was first identified as endothe lial-derived relaxing factor in …

Some 40 years ago it was recognized by Furchgott and colleagues that the endothelium
releases a vasodilator, endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF). Later on, several …

Nitric oxide (NO) is produced by three distinct isoforms of nitric oxide synthases in the central
nervous system. Here, the roles of nitric oxide in the central nervous system are reviewed …
