Infos

The editors of Signal Transduction and the Gasotransmitters provide a paradigm-shifting assessment of the new category of transmitters, the gasotransmitters. These diverse molecules include, but are not limited to nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide. Considering the newly identified roles of these three gasotransmitters and their applications, it is not surprising that the text is organized into three successive sections. All aspects of these endogenous gasses are explored in greater detail and on a broad scale to equip the practicing physiologist, neuroscientist, or cardiovascular researcher with the most current data possible.
