Nitric Oxide and Cardiac Function
Nitric oxide (NO) is produced from virtually all cell types composing the myocardium and regulates cardiac function through both vascular-dependent and -independent effects. The former include regulation of coronary vessel tone, thrombogenicity, and proliferative and inflammatory properties as well as cellular cross-talk supporting angiogenesis. The latter comprise the direct effects of NO on s...
متن کاملNitric oxide and cardiac function.
Nitric oxide (NO) participates in the control of contractility and heart rate, limits cardiac remodeling after an infarction and contributes to the protective effect of ischemic pre- and postconditioning. Low concentrations of NO, with production of small amounts of cGMP, inhibit phosphodiesterase III, thus preventing the hydrolysis of cAMP. The subsequent activation of a protein-kinase A cause...
متن کاملNitric oxide in cardiac transplantation.
The endothelium of coronary arteries has been identified as an important organ locally regulating coronary perfusion and cardiac function by paracrine secretion of nitric oxide (NO) and other vasoactive mediators. Therefore, the established organ procurement in cardiac transplantation using hypothermic storage solutions designed to preserve myocytes but not endothelial cells has to be criticall...
متن کاملNitric oxide and the bioactivities
Nitric oxide (NO), previously known as Endothelium-Derived Relaxing Factor (EDRF) is involved in a wide range of physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms. It is synthesized endogenously by the enzymes Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) in specialized tissues from its precursor L-arginine, yielding L-citrulline as a byproduct. It is released by a family of isoenzymes, viz., the endothelial (eNOS...
