Role of NO in Muscle Regneration

We examined the role of nitric oxide (NO) in muscle repair and regeneration following repetitive eccentric contractions (ECC). A standardized exercise protocol was used to create eccentric contraction-induced injury to the left tibialis anterior muscle of 48 male...

Dietary NO Precursors and Exercise Performance

NO has received significant attention in exercise physiology and sports nutrition, with many NO “supplements” being sold as potential ergogenic aids. This is based on the important role of NO in many physiological processes related to exercise and recovery, including...

NO and Inflammatory Joint Diseases

After induction by certain cytokines or endotoxin, this latter isoform produces large quantities of NO with cyto- and bacteriotoxic effects. High amounts of NO, synthesized systemically and intra-articularly, play an important role in inflammatory joint diseases, as...
