Influence and Implications of the Molecular Paradigm of Nitric Oxide Underlying Inflammatory Reactions of the Gastrointestinal Tract of Dog: A Major Hallmark of Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the most significant chronic inflammatory condition, is characterized by the painful infection in the gastrointestinal tract among dogs. Nitric oxide (NO) plays a significant role in counteracting the inflammation in the mucosa of the intestine. But prolonged chronic inflammation in the submucosal layers leads to accelerated production of NO that causes harmful effects on the cellular system of the intestine of IBD cases. In IBD, a complex mechanism has occurred in the intestine of dogs.
