Platelet Inhibition by Nitrite Is Dependent on Erythrocytes and Deoxygenation
BACKGROUND: Nitrite is a nitric oxide (NO) metabolite in tissues and blood, which can be converted to NO under hypoxia to facilitate tissue perfusion. Although nitrite is known to cause vasodilation following its reduction to NO, the effect of nitrite on platelet activity remains unclear. In this st...
