Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) was proclaimed the 1992 “molecule of the year” by Culotta in Science magazine because of its importance in neuroscience, physiology, and immunology. Inhaled NO has been in clinical use for over 35 years to decrease pulmonary hypertension and improve oxygenation. Over the past 20 years, there has been much research into understanding the role of NO on cell surface receptors, mitochondria, and intracellular processes that involve calcium and superoxide radicals. This research has shown that, irrespective of the cause, NO has a major role in the systemic inflammatory response syndrome and ischemia-reperfusion injury.1 More recent clinical research has focussed on NO use in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass and receiving extracorporeal life support, with some centres incorporating NO into sweep gas as part of routine practice. In this article we review NO pathways in humans, the biologic effects of NO, the interplay between NO and red blood cells, and animal and human studies on the effects of exogenously administered NO.
