Researchers have uncovered a surprising molecular chain reaction in the brain that may play a role in some forms of autism.

A newly discovered biological chain reaction explains how high levels of a common brain chemical can lead to cellular overdrive in autism spectrum disorder. By tracing how nitric oxide disables a ...

Nitric oxide (NO) functions as a versatile signalling molecule in a myriad of biological processes, ranging from synaptic communication to vascular regulation and immune response. Central to its ...

Researchers are shifting focus from large arteries to microvessels, where nitric oxide activity may signal early circulatory changes before symptoms appear. Nitric oxide is a signaling molecule ...

The inflammatory response is a vital protective process, yet its dysregulation can lead to chronic conditions and tissue damage. Central to these processes is the regulation of nitric oxide (NO), a ...

Cornell researchers have uncovered a built-in molecular "gate" that controls the production of the molecule nitric oxide, a crucial signaling molecule throughout biology that in humans helps regulate ...
