Does nitric oxide modulate cardiac ryanodine receptor function? Implications for excitation-contraction coupling.
Nitric oxide (NO) is a highly reactive, free radical signalling molecule that is constitutively released in cardiomyocytes by both the endothelial and neuronal isoforms of nitric oxide synthase (eNOS and nNOS, respectively). There are increasing data indicating that NO modulates various proteins inv...
