    Circ Res 78:225-30. 1996
    ..These findings indicate that NO reversibly inhibits VSMC migration independent of proliferation or cytotoxicity, a novel mechanism by which both endogenous and pharmacological NO may alter vascular pathology...

    R Sarkar
    Department of Surgery, University of California Los Angeles Medical Center, USA
    J Vasc Res 35:135-42. 1998
    ..This review critically examines the experimental and clinical evidence that supports a role for NO as a modulator of smooth muscle cell proliferation, with an emphasis on the multiple mechanisms by which NO acts on vascular lesions...
