Research on nitric oxide (NO) is a very hot topic since 1998, when three prominent researchers were recognized by Nobel prize awards. Addresses clinically pertinent issues related to nitric oxide in the pathophysiology and therapeutics of heart failure. Chapters written by basic scientists and clinicians to emphasize translation character of research in nitric oxide. An excellent reference source for researchers, practitioners and students.
Beyond their obvious role of a barrier between blood and tissue, vascular endothelial cells are now firmly established as active and essential participants in a host of crucial physiological and pathophysiological functions. Probably the two most important factors responsible for promoting the current knowledge of endothelial functions are 1) observations in the late sixties-early seventies that many non-ventilatory properties of the lung could be attributed to the pulmonary endothelium and 2) the establishment, in the early and mid-seventies of procedures for routine culture of vascular endothelial cells. Many of these endothelial functions require the presence of receptors on the surface o...
