Abstract:

Neural tissues generate carbon monoxide. Although neuronal carbon monoxide does not appear to be released in a directed manner, heme-derived carbon monoxide affects neuronally mediated activities. This rather suggests that endogenously formed carbon monoxide is an important neuromodulator. In addition, it appears that carbon monoxide may contribute to various neuropathological conditions.
