This review focuses on the role of oxidative processes in atherosclerosis and its resultant
cardiovascular events. There is now a consensus that atherosclerosis represents a state of …

Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is increasingly being recognized as an important signalling
molecule in the cardiovascular and nervous systems. The production of H2S from l-cysteine …

There has been confusion as to what role (s) nitric oxide (NO) has in different physiological
and pathophysiological mechanisms. Some studies imply that NO has cytotoxic properties …

A dynamic cycle exists in which haemoglobin is S-nitrosylated in the lung when red blood
cells are oxygenated, and the NO group is released during arterial–venous transit. The …

Although nitric oxide (NO) 1 may not modulate all cellular functions and may not be present
in all mammalian cells, the sheer volume of publications on the subject might lead one to …

decrease the need for cardiac transplantation. 53 These paradoxical responses have been
attributed to the fact that many inotropic and vasodilating agents enhance cardiac …

Abstract Aim: Nitric oxide (NO), synthesized from l‐arginine by NO synthases, plays a role in
adaptation to physical exercise by modulating blood flow, muscular contraction and glucose …

The physiological role of nitric oxide (NO) in the maintenance of vascular tone, in synaptic
transmission and in cellular defence is now firmly established. Recent evidence indicates …

Nitric oxide (NO) and its derivative peroxynitrite (ONOO−) inhibit mitochondrial respiration by
distinct mechanisms. Low (nanomolar) concentrations of NO specifically inhibit cytochrome …

Nitric oxide (NO) and its derivatives inhibit mitochondrial respiration by a variety of means.
Nanomolar concentrations of NO immediately, specifically and reversibly inhibit cytochrome …
