Nitric oxide (NO) is the focus of intense research primarily because of its wide-ranging
biological and physiological actions. To understand its origin, activity, and regulation …

Nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are gasotransmitter molecules important in
numerous physiological and pathological processes. Although these molecules were first …

In addition to parasite spread, the severity of disease observed in cases of human African
trypanosomiasis (HAT), or sleeping sickness, is associated with increased levels of …

Atherosclerosis involves inflammatory processes, as well as cytotoxic and oxidative
reactions. In atherosclerotic plaques, these phenomena are revealed by the presence of …

Nitric oxide (NO) is endogenously generated by nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzymes and is
involved in a surprisingly wide range of biological functions. As efforts are made to elucidate …

Timely and accurate evaluation of clinical parameters associated with endothelial
dysfunction is critical in diagnosing and treating atherosclerosis, which represents a severe …

An emergent approach to the detection of nitric oxide (NO) in tissues relies on the use of
fluorescence probes that are activated by products of NO autoxidation. Here we explore the …

The bee venom antimicrobial peptide, melittin, besides showing versatile activity against
microorganisms also neutralizes lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced proinflammatory …

Measurements of nitric oxide (NO) release at single cell level are fundamental to understand
the diverse physiological functions of this remarkable molecule. To achieve this purpose …

Sulfur mustard, a vesicant chemical warfare agent, causes airway injury due to massive
release of destructive enzymes and mediators of inflammation. Nitric oxide plays an …
