lüll Comparing the chemical biology of NO and HNO Flores-Santana W; Switzer C; Ridnour LA; Basudhar D; Mancardi D; Donzelli S; Thomas DD; Miranda KM; Fukuto JM; Wink DAArch Pharm Res 2009[Aug]; 32 (8): 1139-53For the past couple of decades nitric oxide (NO) and nitroxyl (HNO) have been extensively studied due to the important role they play in many physiological and/or pharmacological processes. Many researchers have reported important signaling pathways as well as mechanisms of action of these species, showing direct and indirect effects depending on the environment. Both NO and HNO can react with, among others, metals, proteins, thiols and heme proteins via unique and distinct chemistry leading to improvement of some clinical conditions. Understanding the basic chemistry of NO and HNO and distinguishing their mechanisms of action as well as methods of detection are crucial for understanding the current and potential clinical applications. In this review, we summarize some of the most important findings regarding NO and HNO chemistry, revealing some of the possible mechanisms of their beneficial actions.|Animals[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Nitric Oxide/*chemistry/physiology[MESH]|Nitrogen Oxides/*chemistry/metabolism[MESH]|Reactive Nitrogen Species/metabolism[MESH] |
