Effects of neuronal nitric oxide synthase on human coronary artery diameter and blood flow in vivo.

BACKGROUND: Nitric oxide (NO)-mediated local regulation of vascular tone is considered to involve endothelial NO synthase (eNOS). However, we recently reported that human forearm basal microvascular tone in vivo is tonically regulated by neuronal NO synthase (nNOS), in contrast to an acetylcholine-s...
