Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic strategies related to nitric oxide
Abstract
The formation of nitric oxide (NO) from L‐arginine is now recognized as a ubiquitous biochemical pathway involved in the regulation of the cardiovascular, central, and peripheral nervous systems, as well as in other homeostatic mechanisms. The L‐arginine:NO pathway comprises a substrate, L‐arginine, a family of enzymes, the NO synthases, and at least one physiological effector system, the soluble guanylate cyclase. NO also inhibits enzymes in target cells and can interact with oxygen‐derived radicals to produce other toxic substances. Thus, NO also plays a role in immunological host defense and in the pathophysiology of certain clinical conditions. Several steps in the L‐arginine:NO pathway are ame‐nable to manipulation. Some substances will change the concentration and/or actions of NO with conse‐quences that, in certain cases, may be therapeutic. In addition, other agents themselves generate NO and thus mimic the actions of the endogenous mediator. This brief overview will discuss some possible interventions in the pathway and the potential benefits as well as undesirable side effects that might arise from them.—Moncada, S., Higgs, E. A.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
