Nitric oxide and renal blood pressure regulation.
In the mammalian body the kidney might be the most important organ for long-term blood pressure regulation. Nitric oxide seems to play a particular role in the control of renal haemodynamics, and changes in renal nitric oxide synthesis should therefore be of great importance for the renal control of blood pressure.
