Nitric oxide, a gaseous signaling molecule, is implicated in various physiological events from vascular smooth muscle relaxation to blood vessel formation, extending to pathophysiology to patholgy, ranging from stroke to cancer.

 

The core research interest of Vascular Biology Lab is to understand the nitric oxide signaling in endothelium.
