Costa, Paula Priscila CorreiaAllergic asthma is characterized by chronic inflammation of the airways, which triggers recurrent bronchial hyperreactivity due to the imbalance between bronchoconstriction and bronchodilation. Increasing evidence points to an important role of nitric oxide (NO) in pulmonary physiology, as well as in pathological conditions. Therefore, NO donors, such as ruthenium nitrosyl compounds, emerge as important pharmac...
