The protective role of localized nitric oxide production during inflammation may be mediated by the heme oxygenase-1/carbon monoxide pathway

The protective role of localized nitric oxide production during inflammation may be mediated by the heme oxygenase-1/carbon monoxide pathway

Nitric oxide (NO) is an important part of the host defense mechanism; however, it displays both pro- and anti-inflammatory properties depending on its location and concentration. Importantly, excessive or inappropriate NO production can cause tissue damage. Systemic and local administration of NO sy...
