Cytoglobin regulates blood pressure and vascular tone through nitric oxide metabolism in the vascular wall
The gaseous signalling molecule nitric oxide regulates vascular tone. Here, the authors show that nitric oxide is degraded by the enzyme cytoglobin in the vascular wall, and that mice lacking cytoglobin have reduced blood pressure and are less sensitive to angiotensin-mediated hypertension.
