Nitric oxide, or nitrogen oxide, also known as nitrogen monoxide, is a molecule with chemical formula NO. It is a free radical and is an important intermediate in the chemical industry. Nitric oxide is a by-product of combustion of substances in the air, as in automobile engines, fossil fuel power plants, and is produced naturally during the elect...

NO, a naturally occurring gas that in the body is a short-lived dilator released from vascular epithelial cells in response to the binding of vasodilators to endothelial cell receptors; it causes inhibition of muscular contraction, and thus relaxation. Excesses of nitric oxide are toxic to cells of the central nervous sys...

(= endothelium-derived relaxation factor;EDRF; NO) Gas produced from L-arginine by the enzyme nitric oxide synthase. Acts as an intracellular and intercellular messenger in a wide range of processes, in the vascular and nervous systems. The intracellular ‘receptor` is a soluble (cytoplasmic) guanylate cyclase. In the immune system, large amounts can be generated as a cytotoxic attack mechanism. NO signalling is phylogenetically widespread, suggesting it is an ancient mechanism.

Nitric oxide: A compound that is toxic but which, paradoxically, plays a number of important roles in the body, including the following: It acts as a vasodilator (blood vessel relaxant). It therefore controls blood flow to tissues. It regulates the binding and release of oxygen to hemoglobin. It thereby controls the supply of oxygen to mitochondria...
