Nitric Oxide pathway  Nitric Oxide pathway

The function of the nitric oxide pathway is dependent on nitric oxide (NO), a potent signaling molecule. This pathway is essential for the regulation of various cellular processes in both healthy and diseased states. These processes include immune response, heart function, reproduction, muscle control, and nervous system activity. Additionally, the pathway is also responsible for vasodilation, neurotransmission, cell movement, and programmed cell death.

NO exerts numerous effects on the kidneys, heart and vasculature as well as on peripheral metabolically active organs (1,2,3).

Nitric-Oxide-Pathway

 
The NOS pathway and potential effects of NO on cardiovascular,renal and metabolic functions (2).


Various cells in the body produce NO internally through three different NOS systems. Neuronal NOS (nNOS or NOS1) and endothelial NOS (eNOS or NOS3) are consistently present. While inducible NOS (iNOS or NOS2) primarily links to inflammatory situations.

Neural NOS (nNOS) and endothelial NOS (eNOS) produce small amounts of NO. This, can act as a neurotransmitter, vasodilator, or assist in the release of insulin. While inducible NOS (iNOS) produces significant quantities of NO in order to fight against pathogens (2,5).

NO has a complex and multifaceted role in cancer (breast, lung, prostate, colon, gastric, pancreatic, ovarian, and neuroblastoma), aging, cardiovascular pathogenesis, ocular hypertension, Glaucoma … (3,4,5,6).
