First sentence: Although nitric oxide (NO) and its metabolites are thought to play important roles in regulating many vascular functions in vivo, it has been rather difficult to evaluate contributions of NO in the regulation of endothelial solute permeability in in vitro systems because of both the chemical nature of NO and NO donors, and technical problems with the currently available models for measuring endothelial permeability in vitro.
