Regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase

1997-01-01

Abstract excerpt

One of the major functions of macrophages is to provide the body with an immediate innate defence against pathogenic micro-organisms. This defence is largely dependent on the generation of nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide by macrophages which leads to the killing of these pathogens. NO is also important in many other biological functions. It is derived from L-arginine and molecular oxygen by the enzyme NO synthase...
