"Nitric Oxide and Free Radicals in Peripheral Neurotransmission" is a
welcome addition to the literature and describes current research into
the role of nitric oxide in the peripheral nervous system and its
associated organs. Topics covered range from general consideration of
nitrergic transmission, in its broadest sense, to elaboration of our
current understanding of the role of nitric oxide in transmission in
individual peripheral organs, including its role as a backup, or
alternate as well as chief transmitter. The influence of nitric oxide
and related compounds on the more conventional modes of autonomic
transmission are also considered. Aimed at students and researchers in
the areas of neuroscience and physiology, "Nitric Oxide and Free
Radicals in Peripheral Neurotransmission" also covers the emerging
role of abnormal nitric oxide function in disease states and, where
appropriate, as potential avenues of therapy.
