Abstract excerpt
Nitric oxide (NO) is produced in the nasal cavities, airways, and lungs and is exhaled by normal animals and humans. Although increased exhaled NO concentrations in airway inflammation have been associated with increased airway expression of nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS 2), it is uncertain which NOS isoform is responsible for baseline levels of exhaled NO. We therefore studied wild-type mice and mice with a...
