2. Nitric oxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_oxide

   Nitric oxide reacts with transition metals to give complexes called metal nitrosyls. The most common bonding mode of nitric oxide is the terminal linear type (M−NO). [6] Alternatively, nitric oxide can serve as a one-electron pseudohalide. In such complexes, the M−N−O group is characterized by an angle between 120° and 140°.

3. Nitric oxide synthase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_oxide_synthase

   Nitric oxide synthases (EC 1.14.13.39) (NOSs) are a family of enzymes catalyzing the production of nitric oxide (NO) from L-arginine. NO is an important cellular signaling molecule. It helps modulate vascular tone , insulin secretion, airway tone, and peristalsis , and is involved in angiogenesis and neural development.

4. Biological functions of nitric oxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_functions_of...

   Nitric oxide (NO) contributes to vessel homeostasis by inhibiting vascular smooth muscle contraction and growth, platelet aggregation, and leukocyte adhesion to the endothelium. Humans with atherosclerosis, diabetes, or hypertension often show impaired NO pathways. [ 50 ] Nitric oxide (NO) is a mediator of vasodilation in blood vessels.

5. NOx - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx

   In atmospheric chemistry, NOxis shorthand for nitric oxide(NO) and nitrogen dioxide(NO2), the nitrogen oxidesthat are most relevant for air pollution. [1][2]These gases contribute to the formation of smogand acid rain, as well as affecting tropospheric ozone. NOxgases are usually produced from the reaction between nitrogenand oxygenduring ...

6. Endothelial NOS - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endothelial_NOS

   Endothelial NOS (eNOS), also known as nitric oxide synthase 3 (NOS3) or constitutive NOS (cNOS), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NOS3 gene located in the 7q35-7q36 region of chromosome 7. [ 5 ] This enzyme is one of three isoforms that synthesize nitric oxide (NO), a small gaseous and lipophilic molecule that participates in ...
