Red blood cell endothelial nitric oxide synthase: A major player in regulating cardiovascular health
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) have traditionally been seen as simple carriers of gases and nutrients in the body. One important non‐canonical function of RBCs in the cardiovascular system is the regulation of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism. It has been shown that RBCs can scavenge NO, transport NO metabolites and produce NO in hypoxic conditions ...
