摘要: A number of diseases the respiratory tract, as exemplified in this review by asthma, are associated with increased amounts nitric oxide (NO) expired breath. Asthma is furthermore characterized production reactive oxygen species that scavenge NO to form more nitrogen demonstrated enhanced presence nitrated proteins lungs these patients. This oxidative metabolism leaves less bioavailable and coincides lower S-nitrosothiols. In review, we speculate on mechanisms responsible for inflammatory airway disease discuss apparent paradox higher levels opposed decreased We will give an overview regulation biochemical events which transduces signals into cellular responses, a particular focus modulation inflammation NO. Lastly, difficulties studying signaling possible...
