Issued without a dust jacket. -- This volume presents a detailed scientific review of nitric oxide's multifaceted role in lung biology, with emphasis on its relevance to both normal respiratory physiology and the progression of pulmonary diseases. It compiles contributions from leading researchers across pharmacology, physiology and respiratory medicine. The first section lays the biochemical foundation, tracing nitric oxide synthesis from different cell types via distinct nitric oxide synthase isoforms. It outlines how nitric oxide influences vascular tone, smooth muscle relaxation, neurotransmission and immune responses. The regulatory mechanisms behind the expression and activation of neuronal, endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthases are described in molecular detail. Subsequent chapters explore nitric oxide's participation in airway responsiveness, vasodilation and inflammatory pathways. For instance, its bronchodilator properties and its complex involvement in airway hyperreactivity are addressed with reference to experimental data. The volume also covers how nitric oxide modulates inflammatory cell behaviour, interacts with reactive oxygen species and influences signalling cascades through both cyclic guanosine monophosphate and thiol-mediated mechanisms. Its dual potential as a homeostatic agent and pathological mediator is a recurring theme.The therapeutic section investigates clinical approaches involving exhaled nitric oxide measurement as a biomarker and the use of inhaled nitric oxide for conditions such as pulmonary hypertension. It critically evaluates pharmacological interventions involving nitric oxide donors and synthase inhibitors, weighing their potential against safety concerns. Case studies and animal models are discussed alongside implications for human trials. By linking cellular mechanisms with disease states such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and adult respiratory distress syndrome, the book offers an integrated picture of nitric oxide's systemic and localised roles. With its blend of foundational science and clinical translation, it provides a robust reference for researchers and clinicians in pulmonary medicine, pharmacology and biomedical science. -- Contents: To Nitric Oxide Biology -- 1.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Nitric oxide is an endogenously produced gas with a wide range of biological effects and has been implicated in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. It is released by many cell types in various organs but is particularly important in the maintenance of normal lung function. Nitric oxide in exhaled breath has been identified as a marker for lung disease in some patients. Thus, it is appropriate to consider the lung separately for the role and functioning of nitric oxide. The authors identify key areas in the history, biochemistry, physiology, pathophysiology, immunology and clinical applications of nitric oxide in the lung. The contents of this book will be of particular importance to scientists and clinicians with an interest in lung disease. Moreover, the authors encompass state of the art opinions of and rational for the therapeutic potential of nitric oxide and its inhibitors.…
