1. Dietary inorganic nitrate : role in exercise physiology, cardiovascular and metabolic regulation
Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is a ubiquitous signaling molecule with a vast number of tasks in the body, including regulation of cardiovascular and metabolic function. A decreased bioavailability of NO is a central event in disorders such as hypertension and metabolic syndrome. READ MORE

2. Nitric oxide formation from inorganic nitrate and nitrate : contribution from eukaryotic and prokaryotic pathways
Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is an essential signaling molecule that plays a central role in a broad range of physiological functions. Classically, NO is synthesized from L-arginine and molecular oxygen by NO synthases. Once formed, it is rapidly oxidized to nitrite and nitrate. READ MORE

3. Nitric oxide in cardiovascular and renal disease : role of organic nitrates, inorganic nitrate and red blood cells
Abstract : RATIONALE: Cardiovascular and renal disorders are major health problems, which are often co-existing. Mechanistically, these conditions can be attributed to endothelial dysfunction, a process coupled with reduced nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. READ MORE

4. Influence of the microflora on gastrointestinal nitric oxide generation : studies in newborn infants and germ-free animals
Abstract : Interactions between intestinal bacteria and the host play an important role in physiological regulation of gut function and in development of various diseases. Nitric oxide (NO) exhibits a variety of biological actions in the gut including regulation of regional blood flow, gut motility, water and electrolyte transport and immunity. READ MORE

5. The role and regulation of nitric oxide and oxidative stress in cardiometabolic disease : focus on preeclampsia
Abstract : Cardiovascular (CVD) and metabolic diseases account for significant morbidity and mortality. Over the last decades, despite significant research and clinical effort, their global prevalence is estimated to further increase. READ MORE
