Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2009
Inhalation injury consists of a multitude of insults, the first of which is the toxic gases inhaled during the combustion of organic and inorganic substances. Significant morbidity and mortality in patients with burn injury occur due to the varying effects of these gases.

Carbon monoxide and hypertension
Journal of Hypertension, 2004The enzymatic action of heme oxygenase yields carbon monoxide, biliverdin and iron. Carbon monoxide is implicated in many physiological processes, including the regulation of vascular tissue contractility and apoptosis. By stimulating the soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cGMP pathway and activating K channels in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs ...

Pathogenicity of Carbon Monoxide
The American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 1997The effects of carbon monoxide, one of the most commonly encountered toxic agents in forensic practice, have been known for a long time, but the nature of its bonding to the heme prosthetic group of hemoproteins has only recently been elucidated. In addition to reducing the oxygen capacity of the blood and the consequent systemic hypoxia, carbon ...

Carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide poisoning is a frequent and serious intoxication with an important pre-hospital mortality. The diagnosis is made by the association of a context and compatible neurological and cardiac clinical signs. This diagnosis is now eased by home or firefighters detectors. Management is based primarily on the extraction

Carbon Monoxide and the Pancreas
Current Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, 2012Carbon monoxide (CO), often referred to as the silent killer, is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas. It combines with hemoglobin to produce carboxyhemoglobin, which is ineffective for delivering oxygen to animal and human tissues. On the other hand, CO is endogenously produced in the body as a byproduct of heme degradation catalyzed by the heme ...

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, nonirritant gas that accounts for numerous cases of CO poisoning every year from a variety of sources of incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. These include poorly functioning heating systems, indoor propane-powered forklifts, indoor burning of charcoal burning briquettes, riding in the back of pick-up ...
