The nitric oxide (NO) donor compounds are widely used as antihypertensive drugs. They enable an increase in NO concentration, which has a relaxing action on smooth muscle and promotes vasodilation as well. However, some of these NO donors may interfere with the physiological processes by modifying the endogenous production of NO. It has been shown that [Ru (terpy) (bdq) NO] 3 + (terpy), c…
NO donors are widely used as pharmacological tool to understand the physiological effect of NO, and the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Among donors, nitroglycerin (glycerol Trinitate - NTG) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) have been used to treat cardiovascular diseases. They have significant clinical limitations in their use. SNP releases cyanide and NTG induces tolerance, that is c…
The study of Furchgott and Zawadsky (1980) , has established the importance of the endothelium to the control of vascular tone. This study found that the derived relaxing factor of the endothelium was nitric oxide (NO). The NO is the main agent endogenous vasodilator that regulates the vascular tonus, homeostasis and blood flow. Studies report that the reduction in the synthesis and the b…
