This unique sourcebook serves as a comprehensive reference, bridging the well-established chemistry of nitric
oxide (NO) with the new and exciting role of NO as an effector molecule in numerous biological systems. Nitric
Oxide: Principles and Actions relates the chemical properties of the molecule to its possible effects on biological
systems, under both normal physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Combining the chemistry and analysis
of NO with newer studies of the relevance of the molecule gives this book a long life, making it extremely useful
to researchers in a number of areas.
Provides a much needed synthesis of what is known about NO and its properties
Enables researchers to understand the importance and use of NO in systems of study
Covers a tremendous area of growth in research
Remains timely through a rapidly growing and changing understanding of the biological significance of the molecule
